It was not a lifetime deal.
Vistasocial has disabled the posting feature to X.com for existing users who purchased a license through AppSumo, starting in October 2025, due to increased API costs. They have now made it a paid add-on.
I originally purchased the deal specifically because it allowed posting to multiple social media platforms, including X.com. However, they have now stated that this feature will no longer be available under the AppSumo lifetime deal.
If such actions are considered acceptable by AppSumo, it would be difficult to trust future lifetime deals with confidence.
Update:
I was really surprised — it seems that Vistasocial canceled my LTD right after this post. This kind of behavior is hard to believe coming from a company. Are they really a professional organization, or more like a small private operation?
