I still run the last Multipie version because of all the reported BUGS that persist.

To me, maintained = 'keep working' as the OS advances. The Subscription model is what funds THAT effort (Some older stuff just made you buy the 'improved' version. Nothing wrong with that as long as they are not doing that for BUG Fixes)

Charles & Co, spoiled us with fixes AND improvements for a single purchase. I understand the need to move away from that model (which depended upon continued USER Growth to fund)
