Kudos on not going with a Garmin for the software and glass cockpit. Super ballsy.

Another Icon A5 then, but non-amphibious and FBW?
Sounds pretty cool on paper.
writing all the data mutation logic within a reducer that can be easily shared on both the client and the server
This part… makes me feel odd. Is it actually realistic? Reducers for everything, keeping WASM and backend code in sync. Sounds like a lot of work and cognitive overhead.
The level of lack of nuance (given how high profile the fund is) is eye popping.
Left menu navigation, finally! I’m canceling my Retool subscription immediately.
I wouldn’t think about a transfer to Silicon Valley as an upgrade, actually. (I’m a Senior PM based in Berlin.)
Oh, and I have to add that I'm a 'product guy'. I do see that the tech behind it is both cutting edge and solid but I tend to drift towards the market fit thoughts whenever I see new apps.
Also, good to see TaskForce ppl trying completely new things. :-)
Good start but it's a bit single rainbow right now.
It will take a looong time to become as useful as Campfire because all of the hooks/apps for it that already exist. Opensource is nice but Holla needs some kind of passion-creating feature/vision that would attract a decent community of contributors.
A very good start! My thoughts:
* menubar icon needs to go, not useful
* needs a performance upgrade, scrolling is un-smooth, switching accounts takes too long
* as a long time Mail.app user I miss save and send buttons being on top
* I can haz plaintext composing?
* it started crashing on me after I've added a second account
Screwing over entrepreneurs on the seed stage is just evil. Gordon-Gekko-evil.
A bit offtopic, but I'd like to chime in anyway.
Any startup should be afraid of the big guys, especially Google. But that's not a solid reason to quit when you have good traction.
BTW, good to see other people trying new approaches to task management. (I'm one of the guys making http://task.ly)
Nice, I went to the same (very small but kinda 1337) college as this guy and very surprised by such an un-boring topic for a thesis.
Sorry for the machine translation but an English text is not up just yet.
