Good thing Linear has been finished for a long time doesn't need more features, so AI coding can go slow. Oh damn, it's busy becoming the next Jira :(

I’m conflicted about Linear’s progression. I dislike some of the features but on the whole they’ve managed to keep the software pleasant to use, it doesn’t feel to me that it is drifting towards Jira territory, rather, it feels like it is losing the carefully considered product design because now code is cheap to generate. I’m not worried about it turning into Jira but it has lost its soul. Still a great product.

		I haven't used Linear in any serious capacity, but I feel like there's plenty of market in "Jira that doesn't feel like it hates its users" and "Jira but we care about performance". Not saying that they're shooting for either of those segments, but someone should. Plenty of enterprise orgs that need (or are convinced they need) Jira's featureset.

All software becomes popular because it's not the old behemoth, but it's new, fast, and simple. All software then grows and grows until it becomes the new behemoth, and the circle of life begins anew.
