Cons
Con Seldom updated or improved
There are no frequent updates/improvements.
Con Tag support is squirrly
You can add tags, but there's no auto-complete when you're filling them in, so you can easily make sure you're adding to the same tag(s) that already exist.
Con ZERO Support
Any and all messages sent to the developer go straight to DEV>NULL.
Con NEVER updated anymore
Missing many newer languages. (I'd go as far as to say it's abandonware).
Con No Linux version
There is no Linux version of the software.
Con Built on top of Electron
Electron is a memory hog.
Con Only works with GitHub Gists
As a GitHub Gist client that's not a con (or a problem), but as a snippets manager it is.
Con No integration with editors
There is no integration available with the editors.
Con No hierarchy for snippets
You cannot create hierarchies with folders or tags.
Con macOS version behave not like a mac application
