And this is where you are wrong. I am also on Devonthink Pro 2.11 I don’t see the reason to empty my pocket just because “time is goes on” and the devs are lazy enough to abandon support.
Three pane view in DT2 was good but now in Ventura not only middle panel misses count number - it is there but pushed to the right - changing width size of the panel does not help. Also in left margin that space for a flag is too big.
To add thing to the mix - why we should spend money on upgrade version if there is still no easy way to import Gmail emails FROM THE BROWSER to DT?. Chrome addon does not work - it will clip the entry page that ask for password. I assume 4 years is too short to fix.
Also there is no guarantee that in Sonoma or in the future Apple does not break anything and DT will want to charge us again for fixes.
“Invalid encryption key” bug still appears even on DT on the go and I remembr customer support didn’t even advice me to clear the sync store and start again.
So sorry to say - DT on the paper may look like excellent piece of software but in realty it’s not and I am in the process of moving all my data to Finder and sort them accordingly in the folders it will be certainly more future proof, as there is sadly no equivalent to DT on the market ( with possible exception of Scrivener but that’s another story), The only problem being create web archvies but I can live without it.
That being said If I ever be forced to test DT3 I would rather find cracked version that allow myself to be ripped off.
