The ultimate solution was to buy a color changing shower head from LIDL. This made it so easy to always be in the right temperature zone when taking a shower.
The shower head has lighting that turns to green when the temperature is between 34-38C°. It's red when the temperature is above 38°, and turns to blue when it's below 34°C.
It also shows the current temperature as a display which you can see while you are under the shower. The sensor setup also seems to be powered by the stream that flows through the shower head and only turns on when water is running.
I really wanted to like Onivim 2, but went back to Visual Studio code after supporting the creator on Patreon for a while. The last build and creator update was provided months ago for supporters.
I also wanted to vote against the pricing model, because I think it should be a one time purchase. The creator and his company behind the editor tries to create a serious FOMO on likely customers. I considered it to be a red flag on a potential abandonment. Additionally, I felt it would be easier for Visual Studio code become faster than Onivim 2 can have support for all Visual Studio code extensions.
On the plus side, Onivim 2 has some smart defaults which made it a joy to use. I encourage anyone who thinks about buying Onivim 2 to first learn how to fine tune VS Code to look and feel like Onivim 2 because you can.
I assume by FOMO you mean the increased license price as time goes on, but as far as I understand (that decision was made before me), the idea is that the product becomes more valuable over time as a result of more features being added. You can still buy a one time license as of right now.
As far as abandonment is concerned, I can let you know that hasn’t been discussed. Bryan recently went on his first vacation since working on Oni, but work has resumed since he returned.
Feel free to let me know if you have any other questions — the Discord is always open!
I don't see the issue. Price of a company's stock goes up as the company continues to become more useful over time and no one thinks this is unreasonable. Why not same for a product?
And is the same model used by many 'early access' titles, pay less up front for the incomplete game to fund the completion of the future full-price game.
Interestingly, I've seen some devs turn the concept on its head and charge more up front, kind of to say "only buy in now if you are really doing this to support development, and in return you'll get an early release build - but you aren't buying the game early."
How can we get a one time license? I tried it when it was still the oni repo 2 years ago and would be keen to try again. And is there a summary of how it was different from oni (1?)
You can do a one-time purchase, IIRC it was ~$45 around a month ago when I purchased it. I wanted to buy outright instead of go the Patreon route.
As far as abandonment, I had a fairly subtle issue with it shortly after starting to try it, and on github I opened an issue and got help troubleshooting it in a day, we were able to identify the problem and there was a fix in the build the following day.

Same, though I went back to MacVim. I thought they might bring something new to the table, bit it felt so much like VSCode + a vim plug-in, except with a subscription.
I was really just hoping for MacVim bit with a nicer UI.

I hope this helps.
