What app do you break on? Comment why!

I find it interesting that, although each app serves the same purpose, they have very different user experience, interface, communities, and sellers. I would love to hear from the card community on this subject! Do you use any of these apps? If you use multiple, what are some differences you notice? What do you like and dislike about each? Are these apps moving the hobby in the right direction?

Lastly, what do you feel draws you back as a user? What would make you delete the app? I'm all ears! I'm excited to hear from the community on this matter!

Would You Support Transparent Breaking?

What do we mean by transparent breaking? 
The breaker discloses the box acquisition cost of the box/case.  Then each box price is equally divided into team slots.  A simple fee is applied to account for the breakers time, sorting, sleeving, packaging, coordination, admin, etc.  Breaking style is a Random Team Draw instead of Pick Your Team.

Example:   MSRP of 2024 Topps Update is $90.  Divided that box cost into 30 team slots making each slot $3.  Add a $1 fee to every slot to account for admin work of the breaker.  The result is a $4 team slot with a random team draw.  

Some of this isn't new to the breaking world, just more transparent and equitable.  There's no way for breakers to nefariously  run up prices and top teams aren't selling for crazy amounts.   It also eliminates trying to sell low value teams which delays breaks.

F1 Nationals Break at the Trade Event

Consider checking out this F1 Break happening at the Official trade night. This is a different type of break in that there will be a special guest F1 driver and specific race items given away. But what makes this unique is that there will be attendance and participation badges. These badges will have value at future events (F1 GP, breaks) that give varying benefits which include special access to breaks, meet and greets, and VIP events with the F1 Drivers and Teams.

It also highlights an aspect that I think is largely ignored, giving something of value to non spenders--collectors that spend lots of time watching breaks and contributing in chat and re-sharing big hits. This contribution adds a lot to a Collectibles value and meaning. Having a badge to prove you were there is an area that can be leveraged to reward this valuable piece of the Community.
