Public Record
What changed, and when
We log material content updates here so you can see how this site changes over time — corrections, methodology shifts, new sections, and editorial decisions. Typos and styling tweaks don't make the list; anything that could change a recommendation or a number does. See our methodology for how we decide what to update.
- Trust
Published methodology, changelog, and corrections process
Added a public methodology page explaining our source hierarchy, kitchen-testing protocol, affiliate policy, and what we will not claim. Added this changelog and a corrections form. Added Last reviewed stamps and inline affiliate disclosures at every product callout. - Editorial
Honesty pass on product recommendations
Softened "best decarboxylator on the market" superlatives across Ardent FX coverage to match our actual testing voice. Reviewing every product page for honest cons and "skip this if…" notes. - Content
Removed fabricated review ratings from recipe schema
RemovedaggregateRatingJSON-LD from cannabis Kool-Aid, drinks, and gummy recipes — we don't collect on-site reviews, so emitting them was structured-data spam. - Content
Page-level cohesion and hierarchy audit
Locked one consistent layout shape per page type (hubs, flagships, recipes, troubleshooting), de-duplicated stacked callouts, and standardized where the dose-handoff and safety floor render. - Site
Migrated to bethehippy.com with full 301/410 redirect map
Moved canonical to bethehippy.com, preserved every legacy URL with a true 301, and retired stale pages with proper 410s. - Content
Rewrote flagship titles in problem-language
Switched flagship titles from generic "X Guide" framings to the questions readers actually type — e.g. "How to Decarb Weed Without Killing Your THC," "How Many Drops of Tincture?"
