Used this application for some years. But today the developer pulled the rug out from under it and none of the older versions will work any more. AND they release a new version that requires 10.14, essentially turning their back on the older users who use this to access Twitter.

Has anyone used Night Owl on macOS Mojave yet? I've just started using it because neither Tweetbot or Twitterrific will run. It seems pretty good, but I've tried altering the font size of the text and it doesn't seem to make any difference. Does anyone have any idea why this could be?

Love this application and have for a couple years now. It would be nice if it was updated to support Notification Center (I have longed removed growl from my system). And maybe give it a OS X Yosemite look. Would also be nice to be able to download images from the preview pane.
