    I tried using xattr as mentioned above, but Workernator still isn't working for me (Ventura 13.3.1). It just says: You can’t open the application “Workernator” because this application is not supported on this Mac.

    Any ideas?

    The easiest thing to do would be to wait a week or two until I get Workernator signed for both mac/win. That's whats causing this issue but that'll be fixed soonish.

    Kadauchi do you have any idea what you will be charging for workenator? (I don't have QBC) and will you have a free trial?

    As far as I know, it's going to be the same price as QBC unless @Kadauchi has changed that in the past couple of months. Unsure about a free trial though.

    Nope, no issues staying with Turkernator. Linux will come once I'm a bit further and start working on cross OS issues.

    Are we supposed to be using this instead of workernator..? I'm highly confused as the workernator site is....... having an existential crisis when I follow the link. :emoji_sweat_smile:

    Thanks!!

    Workernator is not finished. There should be updates pushed for it in the near future.

    Any word on workernator and if it's ready to use? Really looking forward to it at this point as I'm getting a "JSON ain't right" error with QBC which makes it go haywire. Or is it suggested to use turkernator until workernator is ready to go?

    I always liked QBC and wanted to keep using it but I'm not sure what to do about this issue and if it will even continue working going forward.

    Just a little update here. Workernator is still being made. No, it is not finished. Kadauchi's been pretty busy this summer and there have been some delays, but it has not been abandoned. Unfortunately, I can't provide a timeframe for when it will be complete. Hopefully, when he's back in town, he'll have another update for everyone. Thank you.
