I’m so glad I have the classic version. No subscription cost also helps.
I never saw the reason to upgrade either. The old desktop version is still going strong for me.
Don't you need to have flash to run it or something? Is it safe to still have flash on your computer in 2023? I think I got ynab on a steam sale, but it's been awhile since I've opened it. And I refuse to pay for a subscription for something that used to be perfectly fine with a one time purchase.
You do not, it’s another Adobe technology, though: Adobe Air. But I didn’t know that it’s still in development.
Notwithstanding that it’s Air, It’s not as if flash is doing something by itself. I guess if you randomly doubleclick SWF files you got via mail all the time, it might be an issue ;)
edit: Fixed malformed markdown
Thanks for the clarification. I'll look into it. Ynab (without subscription) is a great app. Maybe I'll figure some kind of containment system for the Adobe air thing just to err on the safe side. Cheers!
Just FYI, you can’t buy it anymore. And for containment, you can enable the Sandbox feature in Windows (not sure if on Home) and use it, use something like Sandboxie, or simply start a Hyper-V VM.
