An app is trying to force me into a "free trial" with no mechanism to opt out. I can't complete the desired journey as a result. I do pay for use of the app already. Does anyone know where to report this kind of thing?

So, let's see what we've learned so far.
"A.I." coding assistants produce better results ("value earned/tokens burned") when you:
* prompt with tests
* work in small feedback cycles with continuous testing, code review, refactoring and integration
* cleanly separate concerns in your code
LOL

For screen readers to recognize headings, heading text can't just be body text or normal text that's been made to look bigger and bolder. It must be formatted as a heading. In Microsoft Word and Google Docs, this can be done in the styles box. In HTML, use the tags h1 through h6.
