It has every feature I need, and some I have found useful along the way. Best of all, I don't need to deal with that !#&!? MS login which kept me from using Windows Live Writer.

illustietor liked Open Live Writer
alternativeto1234 thinks MarsEdit is an alternative to Open Live WriterIt's still up to date and works very well in 2021. Version 4 is out and actively maintained by developer.
pino76 doesn't think MacJournal is an alternative to Open Live Writer
It seems that OLW is abandoned. No updates and no solutions to problems.
It is most certainly not. The GitHub is still active and they still merge pull requests. Development is very slow but not abandoned.

It most certainly is, Jake. The last version was released on May 23, 2017. It's 0.6.2.0.

I just tried using this to access a Google Blogger account - Google has disabled the oauth process, which makes the client unusable. It still works on one of my Worpress accounts, but I'd agree, the app is dead.
