Troy Lucia (ID: 00000090d0c3c120) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 07/07/2024 Once again, another update that ruins bookmarks on the sidebar.

(ID: ) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 05/31/2024 I've used it for more than 10 years. But overtime it got worse and worse. Many bugs and glitches. Now it fails to reload the thumbnails after reinstall. I guess it's time to look at alternatives

icon

(ID: ) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 05/28/2024 Been loving it for nearly a decade? Been paying for it for years. But sadly, many features that were "coming soon" have yet to materialize, and now I'm getting push ads for Voila. This will be my last year of premium, and will not renew my sub when it comes due this summer. Its a decent enough product, but I can recreate this over a weekend and not be paying to get advertised to, and be 100% sure my data isnt being used elsewhere.
