    They had a pretty active discord server for a while to discuss development but they got a lot of feature requests and people were bugging them a lot and I think they got a bit burnt out so they ended up getting someone from the server to act as security and filter out good vs bad requests, but the guy went on a massive power trip and was just a total asshole to everyone thinking he was better than everyone and the channel went completely dead within days. Shortly after they halted development.

    I feel bad because the main developer was a really nice guy but he definitely over-worked himself. When he wasn’t at his day job he was spending every waking minute working on the app, all hours of the night. For a couple months straight he basically had zero sleep. He did almost all the work for the app. At the time it was definitely the most advanced feature-wise and also looked the nicest, but the guy took a short break and then Voyager came along and I think that was the nail in the coffin. He came back for a bit, then all the drama I mentioned happened and now nothing.
