AppRocket Sucks

In reference to this post, yeah, AppRocket sucks.

It’s fairly good as a launcher — better than most, but it still gets confused by multiple matching Start Menu items. For example, if you type ‘FIR’, intending to launch Firefox, AppRocket will show you multiple instances of Firefox: one for “All users”, and one for your account. Overall, the program is no Quicksilver.

It still would’ve been a keeper had it not been ninja-payware. Nowhere on the AppRocket webpage or on the download page is anything listed about how the app will self-destruct after about a month if you don’t buy it. I’ve checked all around the site and still see nothing about this auto-expiry.

I really, really hate ninja-payware. If a developer doesn’t have the balls to tell me that I have to buy its product, instead sneaking in an auto-expiration “feature”, it seems to me said developer has little faith in both its own product.
