I really like that! I've been toying with the idea of adding support for regular hashtags. I think it could open up a bunch of possibilities. For example grouping all #marketing tasks together. Or indeed #bugfix'es etc.

The reason I haven't implemented it just yet, is because it might get confusing having both regular hashtags and product hashtags.

Some people use the "Product Updates" feature for this, which lets you write rich text posts about your product. It requires you to do more writing, but the upside is that you can nicely summarise a bunch of different changes in one cohesive story.

That feature needs a lot of work though. It's not very discoverable to begin with, and when you publish a post it doesn't get much attention on the site.

What do you think of this solution? Being able to write a short post, optionally linking to certain todos.

So the nice thing about grouped-by-user is that you get the full context of what someone is working on today. One todo by itself might not always be meaningful, but by seeing the other things that person worked on today you get a good sense of what they are doing.

On the other hand, the downside is that every time someone posts a new todo it bumps up their whole list of that day. So as a viewer you start seeing the same content and you're not sure if there's anything you haven't seen it yet further down the page.

Perhaps there's an alternative solution possible. For example only showing the new todos (grouped per user), with the todos you've already seen hidden by a "See 4 more todos…" button. Although that would require us to start tracking which todos you've already seen. Or least a timestamp of when you last viewed the homepage. (anything created after that would be considered unseen).

I was just discussing this with @levelsio the other day.

Would you like it as an option or the default? I'm considering making it the default. So you see each todo individually ordered by date. Similar to how Twitter works.

Cool idea. We can definitely do that. What would you like to see included? Same as the yearly review? I wonder if that gets repetitive after a while.

For adding todos I use the Telegram bot, menubar app, and occasionally the website. (you can press N anywhere on the website to add a new todo).

• I'm not sure what your unique selling point is. Most website builders these days are responsive and don't require code.
• There are too many blue blocks trying to grab my attention. I'd focus on just one ("Get started")
• "Get started" seems boring. How about "Create my website" ?
• "What type of website do I have in mind?" 👉 I'd like to see examples instead of just an icon and a label. Also will I be able to go back and change this later on? If so, say that so users will be more comfortable making a choice. Maybe even recommend one for people who aren't sure yet.
• Actually, why not skip the step of having to create "Get started" and immediately show these options on the homepage? The fewer steps the better.
• It also feels kinda weird right now having these options in this narrow sidebar. Is the whole user experience going to be so weird?
• I chose "Personal" and now see a bunch of themes. That's cool, but many look very similar to each other.
• The animations/transitions when browsing the themes feel sluggish
• I now see the editor. I tried clicking the name to change it to mine, but it doesn't let me edit the text? I only see a sidebar show up to style it.
• It seems like I can drag some of the elements on the page, but in most cases they just jump back to where they came from. After trying some more, I discovered there are certain places where they can go. But not anyway. If I drop the element on an unsupported place it just jumps back without explanation.

If I were a real user you'd lost me at this point. I found no way to customize the text and make it my own site.

I think the earlier you can make it feel like it's the user's personal creation, the more likely they are they feel invested and don't want to lose it. So the more likely they create an account.

I didn't spend too much time on the editor, as you asked us to roast the landing page. For feedback on the editor I think it's best to have people record their screen and explain their thought process.

• Overall it does look quite simple
• I really like the fact I can try out the product without needing to create an account
• The site has its own identity. It looks different from all the other sites out there
• The landing page does a decent job showing off the different features

We only added it like a week ago :)

macOS has never been completely virus-proof. But the combination of its UNIX-based security model and it not being an interesting target due to limited market size meant the threat was limited. Especially if you're a savvy computer user and don't download any suspicious binaries.

I think that's still largely the case.

You might not realise this, but macOS actually has anti-virus software built in. It's called XProtect. When Apple discovers malicious software (e.g. the recent Zoom exploit) it will generate a hash that gets downloaded by your computer automatically. macOS continuously scans your computer for binaries matching those hashes and neutralises them.

This is all automatic and is separate from the macOS updates you might be familiar with.

While there are additional anti-virus programs you can buy, I don't think they are worth the performance hit and come with their own security concerns.

I use SendGrid. You can get ~$10,000 in credits through WIP deals.

I chose it for pricing, deliverability, and customer support.

We have it integrated into the WIP codebase. So any email we want to be set requires us to code it up first is. If you need automation you could look at something like Intercom which we use for BetaList. It saves you a lot of coding, but is quite expensive.

Userlist seems like a more affordable alternative. There's a quite a bunch of similar software out there.
