Bought lifetime, no updates since then. Last activity from Steve’s account (the developer) on Lemmy was over 3 months ago.
A month ago his colleague had an update. Nothing since then.
Did I just throw away my money on this app? Or do you guys think development will start up again?
Also, what do you guys think is the best alternative to Bean with a similar UI?
Voyager is pretty good, the UI is basically straight from Apollo. It also has frequent updates.
I wouldn’t recommend bean anymore, half the things never load, and it’s not as fast as other apps have become. I’m gonna check if Apple can refund my lifetime sub lmao.
EDIT:
Can’t refund, RIP.
Hey CrispyWeinis, I want to express my apologies that I’ve made you feel as if you’ve wasted your money. That was of course never my intention but it’s clearly the situation that a lot of people are feeling.
Thank you for raising the question and I hope to turn things around in the coming weeks. I’ve posted a dev update to the Bean community.
Hopefully you can bear with me a little longer to fix things.

First I’ve heard of Bean but I really like Connect
The world of shady app developers is vast.
I’d suggest switching to Avelon. Mlem/Memmy/Voyager/Thunder honorable mentions.
