This seems completely over-the-top when the person is literally trying to have a discussion about something that they have admitted to not knowing much about. "Attempts" is the terminology being used by the DDG app, which explains why OP is using the same wording.
This whole thread has a weird, defensive and "reinforce my purchase" type of vibe. LJDawson has been pretty transparent about this and has worked hard on the app, so I sorta get it, but come on.
"In fact, misleading is putting it lightly."
How about we all calm down before starting to throw personal accusations out there?
Thank you for spelling it out so clearly. I've seen the screenshot from DDG a few times today but I didn't know how the underlying mechanics of it worked. Now I even notice at the top it says "known to collect:".
Fair enought and thanks for that info.
I was mostly posting to get community feedback and thoughts, so I shared what I came across. Figured people out there would know way more about this the I.
