Hi, We used to be able to use Badgify for automatic participation badges for comments in some of our posts. We used this a lot for our engagement content/gamification.

Because it reminded me that change is not easy. It’s freaking hard. Reaching for the sky is tiring, frustrating, and can just drain the life out of…
If the word “API” makes your brain quietly back away like it just saw a command line prompt, this one’s for you.

Today’s goal is simple: no code, no jargon, just enough clarity that “API” stops feeling like a scary…
