The last Bean release was one month ago. I would not judge that as development that is dead.
I do notice that Avelon seems to update quicker and refresh quicker than Bean, but I’m not sure if that’s just perception 
I’ve had interaction with both developers. The Bean one disappeared as soon as they offered a pay model. I know that one of the people that work with them provided an update, but I just didn’t like how that all went. It’s a great app though. Avelon just currently has more of everything that I want.
Thanks for the reminder, cancelled my subscription. Just had it for notifications, but Lemmios has them for free.
Arctic also has notifications and is free. much smoother thab Lemmios as well.
Really been liking Arctic! The app is very fast and the dev is very responsive.
