What a strange comment. Don’t buy if you don’t want it. Develop a free alternative if you are passionate about it. But just complaining like this? Is it considered dirty to sell something now? At least it’s not a subscription.

I am not complaining about this specific developer, I said the state of software development.

In an ideal world, this app should be programmable in the same time it takes to read the website and buy it.

Not questioning the reasons why such app need to be paid seems even stranger to me.

I did not try it, but at first glance it does not seem to be especially low effort to me.

It’s a niche thing and if it’s well implemented the price seems reasonable to me.
