my job at slack was to avoid this very thing (visual product saturation and clunkiness). really proud of what the team achieved while introducing dozens of new capabilities baked into the product. before / after
Snapchat CEO in 2017: “there's a lot of this thing in our industry called 'growth hacking'…We don’t think that those sorts of techniques are very sustainable over the long term” Snapchat in 2025:

design twitter can't tell the difference between ux designers, ui designers, and product designers.

That’s pretty cool. I’d recommend that every Salesforce employee too must deploy Sales Cloud for a small business.
Designers talk a lot about user empathy, but too often, it’s just talk. At @DoorDash, part of the job is to actually live it - every employee does 4 dashes a year. Here’s my first one! 🚗💨

the entirety of canada’s 2026 budget is just twice of what elon paid for twitter, 1/8th of his current net worth, OR 1/17th of his proposed $1T pay package. 1 person vs 40 million people.

will people get mad if I say something? it’s not the app. this is just the power of distribution in display. jack could sell anything and he’ll rocket past 10k in no time. it’s not easy to get to this scale of distribution though. years of persistence.
3 weeks ago i set a goal of making a NEW $5,000/month app by the end of year i was going to set it at $1000/month at first cause i was scared i couldn’t do it… and now 2.5 weeks from starting building, my new app is over 50% of the way to the goal!with 400 trials pending!!

I’m still quite happy with that suitcase icon. Proud to have designed it in tight constraints :)
TIL (thanks to my husband) that there’s a second Slack app you can download. (Slack for EMM) Now I have my work Slack separated from my community Slack workspaces and can use Slack without stressing about unread work notifications during off-hours.

Many are asking if they can move their Next.js projects from Vercel to Replit? Yes! - Go to Import then GitHub - enter repo URL - Agent will take care of the rest It will set up the dev and deployment environments! For companies moving lots of work, happy to help + discount.
