 - Forage is built with Go and Fyne. Executables on desktop are 12MB, and Android APKs are 80MB. IMO this is pretty huge, but it's the price of the tooling.
 - Fyne is like Swing: widgets and interactions are bespoke, not calls down to the underlying windowing widget GUI. You won't see a native-looking UI.
-- Forage minimizes network calls, and does not check if the list has changed on the server before writing your changes back to it. If you have two people actively changing a list, Forage will overwrite their changes.
+- There's a bug, on Android at least, where backspacing in text fields deletes two characters. The bug's been reported, and is (IMO) not a show-stopper, but be aware.
 
 That said, it's not (IMO) ugly, and Fyne is surprisingly light on the battery. I haven't seen it yet near the top of battery use on my phone, or at the top of `top` on my laptop.
