Do you mind sharing the information you found? I'd like to review it for
comparison... And I think it could help others on this list too...
You realize that there is no monetary gain for anyone when we recommend
other Foss apps, right? Sometimes people are not aware of other options so
I've found it helpful, at least for myself, when people recommend other
products that would fit better.. From your description, it appeared that
you were trying to fit a square peg in a round hole so we were just
offering alternatives...
Personally, I don't think it's right for you to discourage other people on
this list from offering alternatives.
Regards, Salim
