Sure. But to keep things in perspective, for a single payment of USD 39.95 you get a perpetual licence for possibly the most sophisticated personal wiki software on the planet that has ever existed.

Then there is a huge forum where you can very likely find an answer to almost any question or technical problem, and normally there are users there who are happy to help.

I’m not saying it’s OK for a developer not to reply to tech support questions, but you get a lot of value for the $39.95, even if you never hear from the developer.

CT wouldn’t be the only software that’s sold without further development or technical support. See e.g. Outline 4D, which is more expensive and less sophisticated, yet it’s been sold for over a decade without any development.
