    It’s unfortunate. Bean had great promise. I’m still trying to decide on my permanent replacement.

      Took a look at Avelon, and even bought lifetime. Had to refund it, because dev isn’t reacting since 4 month 😂

      Currently I am using voyager, which is okay-ish. There is also arctic which is a native App for a change.

          At one point, I ended up picking two: mlem and bean. This duo would complement each other, because there’s no such thing as a perfect app. Nowadays, I’m still testing Thunder and Voyager to see which one ends up being better for me.

          As I was testing many other apps, I started writing a list of features I care about and which apps have them. As far as mlem is concerned, it has only one blind spot: editing tools. If you remember markdown, it’s not really a problem.

          Thunder is made with flutter. When I realized it, it went straight to the bin.

          I prefer native over react native over flutter. But to be honest: they all do look alike in many cases. Not much setting them apart (design-wise) 😅.

            Yeah, Flutter aside I like that Thunder has a different look and feel to it than the others. I don’t know. I’m having a weirdly hard time deciding, and will probably keep bouncing between the three. Bean was the easy choice for me for awhile.
