For me it feels like breaking up with someone after many years. At the same time, I feel a bit dirty mentioning the name in the post title.

I feel the same way. It's such a bad way to end things with devs that really propped up the site. I hadn't been on mobile before a third-party app that I liked popped up.

The reposting over and over thing has gotten worse in the last year for sure.
