That's an awkward one. Much as it would be nice to be on other platforms, I really want to build an app that I want to use daily and has a great user experience. I wouldn't be so keen on building for a platform I don't use. The JSON feed format is pretty basic, so maybe someone else could provide a Linux client with similar features.



Wouldn't alternative implementations be at odds with your stated monetization plan? I mean, it'd make sense if you were running the platform, but isn't this just a bunch of JSON files in a shared Dropbox folder?


I don't mind others using the idea and feed format for their apps on other platforms. That shouldn't affect my ability to sell the Mac version.


I'm glad to hear it. I'm totally cool with throwing you a few bucks (may I recommend the Pinboard.in model?)
