Comments and Reviews
Pros:
Cons:
I really like scrut.ch, despite it being closed source software. It really comes handy when sharing blocks of texts with friends - ranging from code snippets to entire essays. I would love a (native) Android app (the PWA works like a charm on laptop!).
Thanks a lot for your detailed and positive feedback. And yes, scrut.ch is feature-light by design. However, this doesn’t mean it's feature-complete. So if you're missing something in particular, please do let me know. :-)
