Hi Tim ...
Just like you, I've been an UR user for a long time ~ 20 years. How are you feeling regarding the future of UR in light of the recent changes made of distributing UR via zip files, and an one-off executables. This looked a significant regression for UR and not a good sign of its future.

I'm doing everything I can to keep supporting its development e.g. active in the forums, donate regularly, help fix bugs, spread the word on other forums, etc.

Have you found any other app similar to UR on Windows or Mac as a backup plan? I have not. I tried modern apps developed using web technologies like Obsidian, Notion, etc. Or, native apps like MyInfo or RightNotes. For my use case, UR is KING

I have also been thinking about what other creative ideas are there to support UR.

Thanks
