It hasn&amp;#x27;t been dependable at all in my experience, and that&amp;#x27;s a shame because I love the interface and its focus on simplicity.&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;m excited that parts of it are going open-source. Hopefully the server will be made open so some of these core issues can be addressed.</text></comment>
