As a current/former Bench user, there's been a lot of confusion over the past week following Bench's sudden collapse and acquisition. For reference, see previous HN posts here:

I have found this situation difficult to navigate, as there is a dearth of information available to inform my choices. For example, when you attempt to login now, they ask whether you would like to consent to share your information with employer.com, or receive a link to download your data. This raises a number of questions about how to move forward.

There's been some opportunity for discussion on these previous HN posts, but I felt like a permanent home was needed for Bench users to talk to each other and compare notes, so I created a subreddit here: https://www.reddit.com/r/BenchUsers

Thank you.
