"It’s still Mac and iOS only"

ಠ⁠_⁠ಠ

You can download the Mac binary on Linux or Windows

You can't do anything with it but it's technically correct.. the best type of correct.

I just downloaded to confirm if it still requires signing up for an account to use it (I was on the wait list and ditched it immediately because of this). It still does. I'm ditching it immediately.

I may be a browser whore, always trying anything new, but fuck that. Make it optional for sync and such but lemme use it without signing into your service to see if I want to do so first.

If you feel the same, you aren't missing much.

I would consider downloading it if only for testing since I work in SaaS, but a browser, Apple only, subscription based?

That's an edge case I don't need to consider.

"Unsupported Browser" is the only effort I need to put into it.

So that you will click on the article even though you are not using Mac and iOS.
