Does anyone else find this website confusing? It's not about buying bundles, but apps individually. StackSocial will probably have a real bundle for BF.
I am a Mac app expert. All of these are crap apps except for the following:
Mountain Duck
Downie
Permute
File List Export
Really downie and permute are the only worthwhile apps.
You seem confident about understanding what someone wants in software and being a Mac expert. How can you be so sure about what everyone needs or doesn't need? It's a pretty vast landscape out there, and preferences can vary widely. Maybe it's more about being adaptable and understanding different perspectives rather than being an 'expert' on what everyone wants.

Yeah, no. As pointed out already, you most likely aren't the authority on what people may or may not need, and on top of that, there are quite a few apps in that bundle that are written by folks how've been macOS (and Mac OS[wikipedia.org]) stalwarts of the Mac developer scene since before most people owning a Mac today were born.
SwitchRex X[madrau.com]: Its developer, Stéphane Madrau, has been writing Mac software since the late 90s. CopyPaste Pro[plumamazing.com]: This too has been around at least since Mac OS Tiger 10.4, which was released in 2005
Mountain Duck: This developer's flagship product, the FTP client Cyberduck[cyberduck.io], has been around since 2003. Everyone who needs an FTP client for their work (or hobby) knows Cyberduck.
I could go on, but am honestly too lazy to go through the entire list.
Just because something isn't useful to you doesn't automatically make it useless for everyone. Personally, I already own licenses for Permute, Downie, SwitchResX and a few others, so this bundle isn't for me.
But while there are quite a few titles from what I would consider fly-by-night-developers, that doesn't make the whole thing a scam. Same as IRL: investigate everything you buy before hitting that "Purchase" button.
TL;DR: Always be weary of anyone declaring himself an "expert".

I own SwitchResX and know the dev. Lunar Pro is better (and I know that dev too Lol)

It doesn't take an expert to smell a mountain of "shovelware". But hey, enjoy your freshly minted copy of "UNLOCKIT IPHONE"!
I have serious doubts on that - it also gets into the territory of "whats the true source of where this iPhone came from that I need to remove the lock?" - though I could see situations of the unfortunate passing of a relative being valid
EaseUS NTFS is what put me over the edge on buying a bundle. Since I go back and forth between my Mac and Windows machines, this will be a huge time saver. I've used it previously under a trial and it seems to work well, so I have high expectations here

What did your bundle consist of? Did you add enough to get to the $30 total to apply the other coupon? I can't seem to find enough useful apps (for me) to hit that price point.

CloudMounter for cloud storage client
Downie can be replaced by youtube-dl if you don't mind to use command line
