Some context, the letter came only after months of the same guy dismissing openly or behind the scenes - e.g. not approving posts on the forum - any reported issues and calls from the users that v2 was of beta quality. So I'd say it was an OK move but for sure a forced one after all the negative feedback.

Yep I left after the v2 beta nonsense. He locked my account out from the forums when he didn’t like my feedback. ShareMouse is by far a better product. I feel sorry for the employees but it’ll be a good day when symless goes out of business.

Here’s a fine example of Nick Bolton addressing a longstanding bug:

https://github.com/symless/synergy-core/issues/5226

He deleted a bunch of comments, locked the conversation and then has the audacity to say this a rare issue. I would have gladly helped them debug this issue if he had behaved like an adult.

ShareMouse doesn't support Linux so it's not a 1to1 replacement. Plus I'm very satisfied with synergy v1 just commenting on the approach from the symless CEO here

I have had the exact same experience. Plus totally unacceptable tweets by Nick. Those have been deleted in the mean time for obvious good reasons.
