    1. AppSumo rejected my review because I criticized a new tier added mid-campaign. Is their review moderation potentially suppressing negative consumer feedback?
    2. Nocodebackend has announced that they are severely limiting LTD user accounts moving forward. They still have an LTD for sale.
    3. appmysite ! Extremely Disappointing and Unacceptable Experience with AppMySite

    1. Passed meta review for my own instagram "scheduler" so I could stop paying for postforme and zernio. I wasn't intending on making this available publicly but I was thinking about maybe building this to undercut all existing "unified posting apis"
