I’m Mellow Online, founder and organiser of Sentinels of the Store - a community-led project focused on consumer transparency, platform accountability, and fair treatment on digital storefronts.

My work centres on investigating questionable practices, documenting delistings and policy inconsistencies, and providing context around developer and platform decisions - with an emphasis on evidence, accuracy, and good-faith discussion.

I’m not anti-developer. I support creators who engage honestly with their audience and take responsibility when things go wrong. What I oppose are exploitative practices, misleading behaviour, and a lack of transparency that ultimately harms players and developers alike.

This space is about accountability, not outrage. If you’re here to engage in good faith - whether you’re a player, developer, or observer - you’re welcome.
