Of concern: The developer also codes a spam bot, entitled Spam-Bot. There are many sites discussing spam bots and their behavior. One article is 'What Is a Spam Bot and How Do You Stop Them?' "A spam bot is an automated agent that spreads spam (i.e. unsolicited or irrelevant messages) to many people all over the internet. Spam is common in online forums, social media platforms, online communities, and emails. And most spam online is disseminated by bots." https://www.makeuseof.com/what-is-a-spam-bot/ 😤

macOS 11 or higher (based off the developer's website). I understand posting "or higher" "or later" on the download page. But on the developer's website I want to see specifics not "or higher": minimum OS macOS 11, Compatible with macOS 12, macOS 13, macOS 14.

🤔macupdate.com has the OS listed as OS X 10.9 or later. The developer’s website has the OS listed as macOS 11 or higher. I can't get File Find to launch on a system running macOS 10.12.x I hoping the developer will update the Info.plist to clear this up. <key>LSMinimumSystemVersion</key> <string>xx.xx</string>
