   Thanks for info here. Definitely will look into them. I'll also have to look into if MG has some webhook for complaints, as we're also now suddenly super paranoid about that metric.

    That’s a pretty good question actually, and difficult to address. I try and push new concepts/tech as a way of education on what’s coming. For edu channels it seems it’s a balance of teaching core concepts and also teaching what’s “pop
