I understand that making a good app is hard, and don't want to undermine your effort, but $150 for a todo app... ouch.

[drcongo]

$150 for an electron app. I was considering holding my nose about the Electron part as I've been desperately trying to find a todo app that meets my needs, but damned if I'm going to subscribe or pay $150 for one.

Which cross platform solution would they have had to use to get your $150?

[kareemm]

Pay no mind to this guy/gal. S/he's not your ideal customer.

$150 once for an app to organize your work and personal life is a screaming bargain.

Just because they don't feel the price is right/competitive doesn't automatically write them off as not your target market/ICP - it could still be very valid feedback, especially when competitive options may be cheaper.

Personally I pay less than 1/2 the sub rate they're charging for TickTick Premium, and love it. That's not to say I wouldn't pay double for what it gains me (I definitely would), but given that TickTick is a viable option - I don't need to.

Right like an editor and text is mouse free too and I can grep it with regex or sync it anywhere and have it on any device too.

I am (personally) alright with this model. $150 is on par with OmniFocus Pro [0] which I've gotten easily more than $150 of value out of. (Including prior purchases of earlier versions, and similar price points.)

With todo apps, I don't really expect the same sort of constant on-slaught of features like I do from other things. I expect it to continue to work and get out of the way. I expect the price to reflect the fact there was a lot of upfront work to get it "done" to a level where I can just use it.

Right, but by choosing to go keyboard-focused it's competing in a space with very feature-rich Vim and Emacs plugins (and users who want to work out of those) that are free.

Even the Sublime users have lots of options already. Sublime is ALSO a very capable text editor and $100.

Exactly; this is aimed at current OmniFocus and Things users. People who want it to compete with free Vim won't buy at any price.

And that's not even a perpetual license with updates.
