No install. No account. Public and anonymous. The link asks your agent for one report, nothing else. What it sends

Fading. No reports and thumbs-up in the last 7 days and 1 the week before, down from 6 a week at the early-October peak. A workaround is known.

Send button stays disabled in new Work conversations on Windows. Text entry works but the first prompt cannot be submitted, with no error shown, while Chat mode and existing conversations send normally.
