### 1/5 — Abandonware

*2022-03-13, version 1.2.6*

Hasnt been updated in years. Dev seems unmotivated to pursue this anymore

### 4/5 — Edit the item?

*2021-04-17, version 1.2.6*

As a near future suggestion, it would be nice to be able to edit the name, link, priority and description for wanting the item.
