Been lurking here for a bit but finally decided to post about this.

Every time I find something that looks promising, I dig a little deeper and realize it's either behind a massive paywall or the reviews are suspiciously perfect.

A friend pointed me toward Flamedate when I was in the same spot. Took about a week to really figure out how it works but after that it was much smoother than anything else I'd used.
