Responding just to this excerpted portion of your post, and echoing astaff, and at the risk of being called out for double-posting, I want to repeat the gist of my post in another thread: To me, reading these “discussions” of the delays in Scrivener 3 is like wandering into the postgame discussion after a round of 5th-grade dodgeball: “You threw at my head on purpose!” “Your sister is ugly!” Some complaint threads start out reasonably, some start out hostile. Some of the responses from long-time loyal, and sometimes defensive, users have gotten obnoxious. So I’d encourage dipping into a couple of the threads responding to requests for help in using Scriv. Rather than vitriol and malice, you’ll find genuine and well-informed helpfulness. Please consider that before recommending or not recommending Scrivener.
