Examples of Real Life Use of Platform-in-a-Box

I've asked for this twice through email query which have gone unanswered for weeks, perhaps I could get some help here in community ;) My situtation: I purchased Platform-in-a-Box almost a year ago, but didn't install. (My plans got derailed by life and other valid priorities.) I'm now ready to get active building a blog and online platform, but am uncertain if I want to use Platform theme, so I'm hoping that I can get some examples of websites that have used Platform. Basically, I want to see how others are using it and how well they are using it before I pay for another year. Could some of you provide me with some links to take a look at?

Thankfully, I did get a reply today. And, of course, I should have mentioned that I understood if replies were slow in coming due to pandemic lock-downs and such. Notable customer service gave me three examples, but wondering if there might be more. Anyone want to share their own Platform theme website with me?

Which examples did you get?

Hi Fred,

I created a website for my church LifeGroup (small group) when the pandemic hit to push content and capture discussion guides. It has some widgetized pages + posts + pages. Hope it gives you some insights.

Hi Fred - I use Platform In A Box and I regret it every day. My main issue is the support is not designed for a new user (someone who has not built a site before). Their explanations assume too much (not written for a freshman'), there are no supporting videos, so often Thomas is looking into this and you never hear back. I have worked on issues for months because it's back and forth with communication. They understand their theme, but they CANNOT communicate that understanding to a user. Worst, they refuse to offer any other form of teaching than their emails.

Hey Malcolm, it's very disappointing to read that you haven't received good support from Notable. I also have the Platform Theme, but haven't done much with it until now. What about the training videos that they provide? Have they been helpful?

Fred - here's another example from the Platform Theme - https://daveanthold.me - there are a few things broken, but you can see how I am building out some things.
