Hard agree there. I see how it can be helpful for new users of the platforms but it’s painful for those who have worked in the space for years.

Incredible write up. Gave me some ways to try it out. Thanks!
And do you use it all the time on Mac or iPad as far as device goes?
That’s awesome! It’s seems like it’s way more practical on iPad, so I’ll have to give it more of a fair shake on that hardware.
I had completely forgotten it was on iPad. I mostly use my MacBook but should try out on the smaller screen to see if useful.
Been using it since the days of Google Reader, but it’s been discouraging to see some places stop supporting it. And the accumulation of sites that just stop posting one day always make me sad to look at.
Any good recs to add to my dwindling feed?
Glass Cannon has a bunch of great actual play podcasts in a number of different systems. Some better than others but all really well produced.
Beyond Good & Evil
Just a quick reply to say that Blades in the Dark is a criminally underrated system. It’s an amazing fiction first game that’s easy to pick up and get newbies into. Apparently roll20 has good sheets for it. I use One More Multiverse for its VTT as I bought the resource bundle before it moved to Patreon. Foundry has some Blades resources too, but I’ve not really messed around with them yet.
