The dev is an arch user. He used to hang out on irc a few years back. I remember when he was first writing the app and asking users for feedback.

Thanks for mentioning this. I never thought to even search because often something like this is in AUR, which I never bother with. I will definitely take it for a spin now.

why wouldn't you "bother" with AUR. What stops you?

I don't run software from AUR on my systems. I consider the packages unstable. It's just a personal rule of mine, I'm sure there are some stable, quality packages in there.

If a package is stable or not has nothing to do with AUR.

I used it for years for CLI apps like ranger and dmenu that eventually moved into the the community repo.

Only way (Besides compiling it yourself) to get many programs to work like CrashPlan.
