I've been using the more bare-bones KeepingYouAwake[0] just because I came across Caffeine first and this was suggested as the continuation of that simple utility. The icon makes it obvious whether it is enabled or disabled

Edit: I see now that Amphetamine has the option of a similar-looking icon to make it more obvious whether it is enabled or not

I used Caffeine for years and never really thought about it much, it's always been useful. But I installed Amphetamine lately on a new MBP and I've used the schedule and countdown modes multiple times now. It's a great tool and the added functionality is useful.

Did you manually type that out or is this some “Sent from my iPhone”-esque growth-hacking strategy by the Orion team?

Not from Orion, would be pretty invasive if it was (Orion dev here).
Thanks for clearing that up. I happened to get your beta invite the same day and was a bit over excited about it, I guess

Thanks for working on Orion!
