Are there any other maintainers? What happens when Herman Martinez is no longer able or willing to keep it going?

> This is a morbid topic for me to write about: what happens to Bear if something happens to me? I've got that covered too. There's a detailed succession plan in place, including:

Full documentation of all systems and processes Multiple trusted developers with access to the codebase Clear instructions for maintaining the platform So if I were to be incapacitated in any way, the platform will live on.

Different Bear. https://bear.app/

Which you could have known by spending five seconds on https://lambdalpha.com, or actually reading your own link which calls Bear an "Apple Design Award winner notes app", which doesn't really sound like the Bear blog.

Stop spreading rampant misinformation.

Rampant? Isn't that a pretty extreme response to a mistaken link?

Well, it's edited now, but previously it contained strong accusations, and doubled down even stronger after someone else pointed out they're wrong.
