#buildinpublic Day 45 - linear is successful because of their positioning, not their features. #product

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.

Linear is a fantastic product. They are unfortunately becoming JIRA 2.0 with the amount of features they're cramming into it.

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.
