I've been noticing this happen more lately. Intuit QuickBooks did this exact same thing for GET calls this year as well.
My theory is they see POST/PUT calls as adding value and are actions that customer need to perform and help the platform (adding products, inventory, etc). But GET calls they see as leaching off them and not core requirements.
The huge gap in this theory are things like Seller Fulfilled orders which you have to GET, but for Amazon they have always pushed hard for Amazon Fulfilled instead.
In the end I think this is all mostly to keep things/control in-house as much as possible. Some apps will shut down, others will pass the cost along the sellers. Sellers always lose.
I have a hard time imagining what kind of "side project" would be making use of the Amazon Selling Partner API. It all revolves around managing listings and sales through the Amazon storefront - if you've got a use case for that, it's probably for something serious.
Thank you for the link. I didn't realize Fakespot is also getting shut down. I guess these acquisitions didn't work out so well profit-wise, but it's good to see more focus on their core browser.
A small side project of mine got found by scammers who loved to use stolen credit cards on it :-(. It made me need to prioritize some extra safety and consider whether it was worth keeping the project live with so little real usage. So apparently I'm better at getting the wrong kind of attention.
That is something increasingly happening to people without traditional IT background’s using AI assisted coding. They are now able to create and run their own products. Don’t get me wrong here, i strongly believe thats an awesome situation and chance, but brings loads of responsibility with it. I added a new service to my company portfolio to support these. As this is a hot topic, i got an unexpected amount of traffic and inquiries. https://secure-vibe-coding.de/
The droplet that hosts my blog (mostly static files) got hacked into (I think) a botnet and I had to spend hours rebuilding it. There is nothing worse than having your hard work misused by people for a tiny financial gain.
I feel like your game could fit into a similar bracket format where everything is displayed on one page. I don't know how the UI of selecting emojis would work there though.
It took me longer than it should have to realize the last puzzle was made up of all my previous answers.
Spoiler: I also failed miserably at the last puzzle since I was thinking watergun and not gun so I thought it was a firefighter. I also couldn't tell that one emoji was a jail so just sort of ignored it. So that's mostly on me for having trouble understanding some of the emojis.
