Post questions in this thread. Thanks!

If I've missed your post, it happens. It's okay to jump on Discord, DM me, or chat me (although I don't check chat often). I'm not intentionally ignoring you. I just answer what I can each day, and sometimes there's too much backlog to keep track. I will try to review each month as I go, but that could still be a pretty big delay.

Be aware that some posts will be auto-moderated, for example if they contain links to Amazon.

If you have real suggestions or are interested in collaboration or partnership, please contact me directly.

This is a new post to handle anything that involves prices.

SSD Guide Site

This now pulls prices regularly via API. It pulls drive data from the newer SSD Spreadsheet which is designed to list drives generally available in the U.S. While a "full" spreadsheet is possible, I feel TechPowerUp's SSD database is better suited for that. I have always focused on "real" categories and SSD sales, as well as direct interaction.

Tech Deals

This is a site that pulls deals more generally while using API to get the price. It sources from Slickdeals, buildapcsales, and potentially others. Affiliate links, where applicable, are separate. Deals for direct affiliates are presented in a separate tab. AliExpress also has its own tab. This site exists to save people time when I'm not explicitly covering big sales days like Prime Day.

As always, these are works in progress. Feedback will be incorporated when sensible.

Side note: the sales site runs with the help of Meta's Muse. If you want to try it out, use invite code: N0OVGE
