Herein is an argument for subscription pricing, I guess. Revenue solves a lot of problems.

On the other hand, I see OmniFocus is rolling out their new web interface with a ten dollar monthly subscription fee - https://www.omnigroup.com/blog. If I lose the option to just license OmniFocus outright, I’ll use something else.

If I read the blog post correctly, I believe the subscription pricing is an option to the normal pricing. Fortune favors the prepared, though.

All low cost software is becoming a candidate for subscription pricing. Always keep alternatives in mind, and avoid becoming addicted to anything.

I dropped Ulysses when they started their subscription plan. I came back, but only because Ulysses syncs perfectly between MacOS and IOS. The only reason that matters is my iPad is better in a (parked) vehicle than my Macbook. If I decide not to write on my iPad, I don’t really need Ulysses.

Or maybe I should just revert to my native habitat, Linux.
