[Opensim-users] Your Viewer and why?

[Gudule Lapointe]

Working on Mac, i gave up using Imprudence, because 
	1° the last Mac release is pretty old, which is not good for a technology moving as fast as OpenSIm….
	2° there some are bugs (including missing day cycle) and, regarding to point 1°, I can't hope the will be fixed soon

Currently happy with Singularity, though it raises frequent  messages about crash loop which cause a pause until you press the button…
