PureBasic Forums - English

Didn't someone have a running forum thread that contained links to other forum threads where people repeatedly posed the question "Is PureBasic dead?" or statement "PureBasic is dead"?

I looked for it but couldn't find it. I wanted to add to it a link to this forum thread.

PureBasic is definitely alive.

Fixed that for you by adding a word in bold. Browser-based apps are NEVER as fast as a native executable, and never can be.

And likewise: I work for a large organization that blocks and doesn't let me run browser-based apps unless they're white-listed. So, the same problem.
