Okay, fine. You got me.

I hate writing apps and writing app culture. I despise “minimalism”. And yet Ulysses has totally charmed me over. Well, almost. The icon is terrible and at this point I’m convinced they’re simply trolling everyone with taste by their devotion to this icon. Why do I think it’s a troll? Because everything else in this app is so exquisitely crafted and gosh-darn thoughtful—my personal favorite is how trackpad gestures expand and collapse views and navigation elements. I don’t regret spending the money at all. JUST PLEASE CHANGE THE ICON.
