Put one for $10 on Apple App Store and more might impulse buy it.
For my part, I need to be very very sure when it's posted through gumroad. I've gotten burned too many times by short term (as in, within months) abandonware through the gumroad sales channel.
Dev gets bored, doesn't want to deal, download goes unavailable. So you buy it, get a new computer next month, and can't install it. Especially annoying when I "name my own price" typically around $20 to tip the dev, and then the dev won't even keep that build available.
For the App Store I would need to strip off some features.
I think you reasoning is valid, but the app is open source. Worst case one can compile it (e.g. just ask AI agent even if you are not a technical user).
I also put it a low price, for this version, as I would like wide adoption. I truly believe people are going to move heavier into local AI, and it is good to have low friction entries.
