Why this matters for Candid: Weebly is the canonical worked example of platform-discontinuation risk for hosted-builder customers. Pair with Weebly wind-down under Square (2025) — frozen features, removed mobile app, users report 100s of hours of manual re-entry for the user-impact detail and Platform-discontinuation historical analogues — Apple iWeb (2011), Adobe Muse (2020), AppDrag (2025) for the historical analogues.
