AFAIK Ryrt is not in the list
I have to say that it's difficult to spot an AppSumo worthy deal lately. I've been checking the Sumday offerings (limited list of software provided), and have not found any single piece worth.
here it is (but it's not too good of a deal for a serious content creator):

Also, if you are a nichesss fan then the appsumo deal is the best deal I have seen for any AI writer on the market today. You get unlimited credits for a one-time fee of $59 (normally, you would pay $19 a month). But the longform content of nichesss is so bad that I can't be compelled to get this deal. But for everything else that nichesss does the deal is a must-take. Here's the appsumo page:

Regarding the compulsive buying patterns, I think that they're not so bad when it comes to buying software for working online. I don't regret having purchased a single software that I've spent money on in the last 10-12 years. Sure, I still don't use 90% of them, but I love having them as an option for times when I put my lazy ass to work. And yeah, Ahrefs is really good...
It says that the lifetime deal gives you 30% off of the monthly price. So 39$ - 10% = around 9$ saved a month
I don't know what you mean. Are you referring to Rytr, or to something else? If it's Rytr then the normal appsumo deal is indeed $39, but the reason I don't like this deal is the limited number of characters (50k a month). You burn through those characters within a couple of days if you just test the software. Last night I created an article from scratch and I burned through 12k-13k characters. I did end up with a 850 words article that is GREAT and would slap on my website without hesitation were I to have a website in the "improve vision" niche, but that was only a test article, and it's fully created by the software. And it used up around 12k-13k characters, so yeah.... getting only 50k characters a month is insulting, even for a once-off $39 deal.
And with the appsumo day special you get 10% off of this $39 deal, which means that you save an extra $4 which, for a software like Rytr I would have happily paid anyway had the offer been better. So, I don't know how you've come up with the $9 a month savings
I was happy on this sumo day, because nothing to buy.... money still in pocket
lulz you do have a point

... although, there are a few good deals in there, but again, not because of this measly 10% off special, but because they are good in general
The most disappointing Appsumo event after BF 2020. Nothing interesting except for 123RF, which is a reputable stock photo/vector provider.
I think getting hosting for $4 a year, or for $24 once-off payment is pretty good. Now, I don't know how good these hosting packages are, but for my intent (create 10-20 autoblogs with spun, machine-generated or scraped content) and using them with this hosting, thus avoid getting your main hosting account DMCAd or whatever, it's pretty good deal in my opinion.
And then there's also the screpy offer which gives you a fully-working SEO audit and keyword tracking tool for a one time cost of $49. Sure, Screpy is not as big and popular as other SEO tools, but for the small SEOer like myself who has limited budget and only a handful of small sites the deal is a no brainer. SEO Profiler, Raven, WebCEO, and all other SEO audit and rank tracking tools are way more expensive than this
