mtls2005 Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 As if things couldn't get worse for this app. Maybe time euthanize MorChana, fall back, develop a suitable app, test it, re-brand, incentivize (instead of threaten) people to use it? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
