It‘s just sad, the app was so promising.

I’ve mostly stopped using Bean because the features of other apps have greatly surpassed it. But I really do miss it. If Steve gets a burst of motivation and pushes some meaningful updates, I’ll be back in a heartbeat.

What did you move on to? I’m struggling to find something that combines the UI and speed of Bean.

My daily driver is Thunder. What I like about Bean is that the title font is larger than the rest of the post, and you can customize the font in Thunder to sort of match that. I also like that it’s not a direct clone of Apollo, like Bean.

And then I use Arctic for Mod Tools.

Arctic is pretty good. Not nearly as refined, UI wise, as Bean, but way smoother than Thunder.

Wait, this is dead? I didn’t notice. But yeah, it appears like that. Just need Banners to be honest. So much stuff here is quite nice. Aside from the fact that many options are paid only but you have to make money somehow.

I paid the $30 when it was on sale and am regretting it. It has the best interface IMO, but it’s stalled out, is missing features other clients have added, and still hasn’t delivered on features such as truly functional community groups that were part of the pro package.
