I'm curious about Linear, being honest; because developers are not the decision-makers with a budget. Plus, when I looked at it, it just seemed like Jira with some of the crap removed.
That seems to be a common problem with products that get big & need to curry favour with current/potential investors. Miro seems to be falling into that trap, too.
It's unfortunate that you can't just make a product, finish it & that's that. Hitching a company to a single idea makes things awkward.
I just want to reiterate that I watch nearly every one of those. You have clear thinking, great presentation and excellent insights. And it's nice to see you smile every day too. 🙏
Cool point, but the crisp duality kinda blurs over the reality that in product design:
positioning "for who" --> "most useful" feature subset
The former determines the latter
Absolutely. Which is why it irks me sometimes when people make comments about ‘competitive’ markets or product types. Theres always disruption happening for different reasons.
