Demise of Lite

You may have noticed that we have discontinued our Lite version of the Blog Writer. If you already have Lite, you can continue to use it but we will no longer support or update it.

We made this decision for a couple of reasons:

1. We designed Lite to be a slimmed down version of our editor for users who didn't care about inserting product links. However, we couldn't find many features to remove so it ended being very similar to the full Blog Writer. It wasn't a big surprise that demand has been low, with Lite making up less than 20% of our total downloads.

2. As we were developing version 1.0 and looking at our feature roadmap, we couldn't think of many features that we would include in the full version and not in Lite.

We might create multiple versions again in the future, but until then, we'll offer just one version of our Blog Writer. For those of you who don't want to insert product links, it's easy enough not to use that feature. But we hope you will try it out! If you're not interested in earning money for yourself, we encourage you to create product links for one of our charities or the Zoundry donation jar.

Let us know if you have suggestions for future versions of the Blog Writer targeted to specific use cases. We always appreciate the feedback!
