I just tried it, although it asks to upgrade to a premium version to post comments. I think I'll just keep the authenticated browser tab open to post comments for now. :)

Consider supporting freemium software that you enjoy using —especially when maintained by individual developers— if you ever hope for it to be maintained.

Odd - I'm using Octal now, and it hasn't required an upgrade for comment posting.

In fact, I didn't even know there was a premium version.

The developer changed the pricing model about a month back (?). People who got it before the change were grandfathered into the premium service.

Can confirm - using the base version to post this comment.

Now posts are a different story - you can’t publish a post from Octal.

Huh, didn’t notice you can’t post till now. Maybe it’s in the works?
