The submission for 'Managedkube' presents significant credibility issues. While ManagedKube is a real boutique DevOps consultancy that released a cost dashboard in ~2018, the product appears dormant (GitHub inactive for 7 years). The submission claims 'everyone' as the audience and that 'most people have used my product', which are demonstrably false red flags. The name 'LunarForge' appears unrelated (likely a copy-paste error or unrelated game studio). The 'marketcap' revenue figure is terminology misuse. Evaluating as a dormant tool with a low-quality submission.
