No it’s not. I have a desktop and 2 laptops. My desktop has 3 OSes, Mac windows and Linux. Why the hell would I buy this, and then have to think really hard about which one I’ll use with it?

I probably feel too strongly about this. Last week I setup a nytimes cooking subscription and then immediately canceled it when I realize I had to leave it on auto pay or else it wouldn’t work.

Just having a desktop and a laptop is enough to kill this product for me, I’m not paying twice when it’s only me using it. It shows disrespect for the user, or at least ignorance.

No other paid software I use does that. Sketchup, Sublime, Jetbrains, and Office for instance.

Office is a mixed bag for this. I have a Visio Pro licence that only allows a single installation. Driving me insane.
