We removed the explanations of the grayed-out pledge levels. They were upselling Beemium. We don't like Beemium, nor carrot-dangling generally.

The slider-related buttons ("lock it in" or "cancel change") no longer allow double-submits and nicely disable themselves while processing
English
We now show the "LOCK IT IN" button by default but it's disabled if you haven't slid the pledge slider
English
The pledge sliders look more like sliders now (at least one user thought they were static diagrams!). Affordance ftw.
English
We added clarification to documentation of the Uncle API endpoint that it's no-takebacks, no refunds (though honey refunds we're ok with)
English
The new pledge and pledge cap sliders are now also in the goal restart interface
English
Help docs: Added a section to the Focusmate autodata integration article about counting sessions that didn't get partners (and a related bug we're hunting)

English
Another big usability improvement: you can decrease to any lower amount, not just down by one level a week at a time, like scheduling a $270-to-$5 stepdown
English
Besides the UI, the biggest UX improvement is that scheduled stepdowns of the pledge and pledge cap happen together, simultaneously
English
Drag the dot on either slider (pledge or cap) and the other one will move accordingly so the cap is never less than the pledge
English
Much nicer UI for choosing pledges and pledge caps (not yet available as part of goal creation, but in goal settings or the popup when you click the pledge)
English
Help docs: New FAQ items in the BoardGameGeek integration article plus a step-by-step example goal setup guide, plus minor tweaking of the Fitbit article

A pledge dropped to $0 (a Beemium-only thing) could pop back up to $5 within 24 hours of the step-down due to pledge cap & feetwetting confusion. #bugfix
English
The blog now has a nicer slider/carousel for related posts, based on shared tags. HT narthur
English
Plus error handling like if you haven't actually started Clozemaster language learning and have no points at all yet. #bugfix
English
Relatedly, we'd start the goal with the red line at an incorrect value, because we weren't passing along the initial value correctly. #bugfix
English
A user helpfully pointed out that when you picked all languages in Clozemaster goal setup the graph preview step of setup failed. #bugfix
English
Help docs: Highlighted and clarified key points in the Uncle Button article plus more minor streamlining/clarifying in 2 other articles
