"Thank you for your reminder. May I ask if you are accessing the website on your mobile phone? The pricing page is located at the top of the official website for desktop version. If you are using the mobile version, you will need to click on the hamburger button.

I have updated the wording to: “Free during the beta period, Provide Believer plan, one-time purchase (60$) with lifetime updates.”

Ha, I love the 'Believer plan', it's much more honest than most of the vaporware sellers out there (errm... kickstarters) and to outdo them you have at least released.

Kudos. I'll consider becoming a believer, since the 'scrapbook' extension got murdered by FF leaving me with years of inaccessible notes I've been looking for a replacement, even if not perfect it will definitely have to be based on open standards and open source.

Uh, yes, sorry. I also use a dark theme extension that renders the menu icon almost invisible (maybe try to view the page with some of them, in high enough contrast ratio this shouldn't happen). I thought the footer had all the links, so maybe that should be extended - stating the price on multiple places does not seem necessary otherwise.

Price seems to be reasonable, good luck with your project!

You are right, I added the price link in the footer.

FWIW, I'm on mobile, and I too was concerned when I had to look around to see the price. It seemed like an "If you have to ask, then..." scenario.

But your $45 price seems really reasonable, so maybe worth showing it clearly on the mobile landing page?

Not my area of expertise; just my personal 2 cents.

You can try the desktop version first, and then consider buying it after the mobile version is released. Until iOS and Android are developed, there will be no charge.

Currently hamsterbase provides rss subscription export, you can take any cell phone rss client subscription.

Sorry, let me clarify. If I bought it, it would be for desktop use. But my first exposure to the product page and the pricing, was via my cell phone.
