If you’re anything like me, you likely air your grievances almost as quickly as they arise, leaving little with which to celebrate around the Festivus pole.

Fortunately, most aren’t like me.

If I have one grievance pending, it’s apps that advertise themselves as one thing and completely fail to deliver on that featured feature. For example, MURAL, which I used to create a space for everyone to air their grievances with us. It advertises itself as an open space to which anyone can add without registering, but reality seems quite different. (Give it a shot. Maybe it works now. Assuming it works, you can take on the avatar of a Cranky Pangolin and air your grievance(s) to your heart’s content.)

More important, all of us in the SAR Editorial Collective share our best wishes for a happy, healthy and prosperous 2022. Keep creating alternatives.

Thank you for reading and your support.

Yours,
