Also "not seeing" the notification count badge

The app seems to not receive any new development updates? 😢 @timche Has development been abandoned?

UPD: installed latest alpha release to see whether notifications work with it. UPD2: they work 😺 the icon is not quite intuitive as it just becomes colorful, though it is better than no notifications =)

Thanks for your updates @yermulnik! Regarding the development, I would say it's currently on halt (though a very long one), because I'm currently too busy and the Electron ecosystem is moving really fast. It's hard to keep track with all the latest changes and innovations, but I'm somewhat motivated to build v3 from ground up (again) instead. Then there's also personal costs involved to renew the Apple Developer Certificate, which is 99 USD. I'll try to come up with a plan for myself to invest time in this project, but only time will tell. Sorry for now!

A rebuild could be nice - any plans to first release the current Alpha as stable, before the complete re-write?

As for expenses - ever considered a low-cost Patreon link, or other method (like the native support this project / developer function here in GitHub) to subtly solicit for donations without making the app a paid app? I'd more than willing to chip in, as I use the current 0.37 Alpha almost daily.
