I spent the morning carefully editing a post using ecto. After two hours of work, I was finally happy with my changes and decided to publish the damn thing. Hit Post Entry, as usual, them BAM! A warning message that tells me I have to activate my software in order to use it. Let me just say that again: I have to activate before I can use the software that I used normally for weeks now, and I can’t go on and publish my urgent edit until I do that. Instantly, I regretted paying the shareware fee.

But that’s not all. No, that would have been too easy. TOO EASY FOR THE MOFOS WHO DON’T FUCKING ACTIVATE. If that message blocking my workflow would be all, I would have been OK, really. I could have just try to post the text via the web interface and later think about a replacement to ecto. And try to forget about the good times I had using it.

That was the plan when I clicked the damn Cancel button. The second I clicked it, ecto asked if I want to save the changes to the draft. Well, yeah, sure, I thought I already did that a hundred times already, but please do go ahead and ACT LIKE FUCKING SAVING THE CHANGES WHILE ERASING EVERYTHING I DID.

Ecto, we have to see other people. And those 15 bucks I payed for your love… I want those back. Pronto.

UPDATE: I got my money back. Posting this in NetNewsWire.
