Open Source and Contribution
Piepmatz is and will remain Open Source Software under the conditions of the GNU GPLv3. However, in order to support the development of Piepmatz, we'd like to ask you for a contribution - you could also call it royalty - before you can run it after a trial period of 14 days.
Such a contribution can be made by translating Piepmatz to another language, help developing it or simply by purchasing a key in the app or directly from https://werkwolf.eu/piepmatz.html
As mentioned, you have a testing period of 14 days after the first run of Piepmatz. Take your time to test the application and ensure that it fulfills your needs and that you really like it. There are no limitations to the software during this time - simply press the button "Continue Testing" on the initial screen.
If you decide to purchase a contribution key in order to keep on using Piepmatz beyond the testing period, please choose a contribution type. You have the choice between 4 different contributions: S, M, L, XL. No matter which size you choose, the purchased key will unlock the the complete application after the trial period. It's up to you to decide how much the app is worth to you.
Moreover, feedback about Piepmatz is always appreciated (good, bad, improvement/feature ideas etc.).
As mentioned, you can contribute if you're a native speaker in a language which is currently not supported. Translations are always welcome.

Your digistore24 link seems to be down, I check the agreement and no payment options appear.

Mhmm, that's strange. Please try the links on https://werkwolf.eu/piepmatz.html (scroll down to the bottom). If it still doesn't work, please send me a screenshot of the missing payment options.

Thanks for the screenshot. The tiny little detail "United States" is the reason. Unfortunately, we can't sell to the US...

Will you be able to handle this upcoming issue:

Or did we pay for the app just for few months?

These changes are known since about a year or so. Therefore, Piepmatz was designed to work without adjustments even after Twitter deprecated these API endpoints.
So, Piepmatz handles it already now and will work also after August 2018.

Oh....looks like I was stumpling upon an outdated newsfeed ;). Android resp. Google is not my friend and will never be my friend.... So I just thought it will be another reason to keep my bad opinion about this company resp. this OS. Thanks for clarification.

Thx werkwolf. I'll give it a try. Could you give the home.buttom a bit of love :-)? Press home once should bring you to the top (implemented). But if you hit home again on top it should start refreshing the timelime. More comfort to use. Thx for your work (paid app support, piepmatz, wunderfitz).

You only need to reinstall my Piepfish icon theme from Openrepos: https://openrepos.net/content/ferlanero/piepfish-complete-image-mod-piepmatz

For the app icon, you need a patch as it's not allowed to change the app icon from the app itself. Probably, you only need to reinstall the theme patch from Ferlanero.

Hi,
werkwolf. A possibility to refresh threads instead going back to timeline and reenter the tweet / thread would be very nice and useful. Atm I have to go back and back to the thread to see new comments. Thx for this feature rich client!

Hi,
I have PiepMatz v0.5. Is this version an upgrade from that which now requires payment? A little confused...
WerkWolf

That's correct. It's a major update (see the changelog above) and requires a contribution after a 14 days trial period. It's now published by the company WerkWolf because it's complicated for an individual to do business in various countries and for some other legal reasons. Development is still done on https://github.com/Wunderfitz/harbour-piepmatz
A contribution can be done by payment, translation to a new language or by code contribution. Translators and code contributors get a key via e-mail directly from us, those who paid get the key from digistore24. You can choose between 4 payment options, all unlock the whole app. It's up to you to decide which one suits you best and how much you value the work on the app and how much you like the result. :)

Thanks for this great app ;). I have it installed almost from the beginning. But as said already above:
"Saved search" is missing and this prevents to use it as daily Twitter app. As soon as "Saved search" is implemented I will donate XL ;).

Well, the feature hasn't made it into 1.0, but it will most certainly be part of the next one. Just follow issue https://github.com/Wunderfitz/harbour-piepmatz/issues/12 to check when it's done. Very interesting that this one is so important... ;)

Great ;) Thanks for the update and providing "Saved Search" support.
As promised in my previous comment I have donated XL now ;)
It is the best and most professional designed Sailfish app so far.

I would support an app like this if I actually had a Twitter account. But since I've never had one and never intend to get one, well... Bye.

I would think Piepmatz is a 'killer app' if saved search of my most favorite Twitter places are shown i.e. ”SailfishOS” or ”JollaHQ”. Have my financial support if this feature is included in future releases!
