That's why I quit after one year subscription.
I like Livecode a lot, but it has it's limitations, lot of bugs are not
solved.
Feature requests not implemented although asked by many.
Livecode is great! Don't misunderstand and it learns a lot of people to
program. But it runs behind future facts.
While other platforms implement dozens of easy things which you can easy
access, you'll have to hope it will be implemented.
And the same is offered for free. Maybe takes some more effort to learn.
HTML5 is a drag in LC, unusable, to play ok, to really use no way..
Better learn html yourself and use PHP or LC-server if you like, and it
will take about the same amount of time to create it. And have real fast
loading of your webpage. Visitors are not going to wait so long until
it's loaded. Maybe ok for internal use on Intranet, but as user then i
would be even frustrated of the loading times.
So i now made a webpage in PHP/HTML, a bit javascript and Mysql, it's
for internal use at a company. All info I need I can find online.
And next to it I'm learning Flutter platform with Dart as main language,
it's free, it's the future, many devs are going that way.
It supports Android, iOs, web and even building an executable for
Windows is on it's way.
Costs: time.
____________
Next to this, I also do not understand those dozens of emails I get
begging for money to buy them tickets to New York.
What would that help the language forward except some awareness of that
it exists?
Thousands of people loose their jobs these days with this Corona shit,
many companies (read at least 50%) in Netherlands get support money from
the government to stay alive and else they are broke. Due to all the
lockdowns.
And here LC is begging for ticket money, I don't see the logic.

I was told last year that HTML5 deployment would see upgrades maybe by
Jan2021 LC 9.7. However LC9.6.2 is still awaiting an RC3. So it’s just not
going to happen. My client and I are severely disappointed to see that the
conference set up for 2022 may be the FIRST LOOK we might see for the HTML5
upgrade. Actually, disappointed doesn’t even close to cut it. I am
seriously LIVID! Absolute proof that subscription model for this is
pointless. It pisses me right off that promise after promise I keep falling
for this crap. I’m paying something like $400 on top of the original $400
per year for this kind of service. I CANNOT afford to keep doing this with
vague empty unfulfilled promises (lies). I KEEP falling for it because the
likes of others on this forum keep trying to convince me that they have our
best interests at heart. But keep forgetting that this is BS too.
Roadmap = careering off a cliff top. Clean up projected for New York 2022.

I've said something to that effect earlier, at which point I was jumped

So, because I don't want to be jumped all over again, and because
saying the 'roadmap' needs to be updated will have no effect (didn't the
last 3 times),
I'm NOT stating what I think.
Love. kisses, and other things,
Richmond.
