<p>Free user onboarding is awful. Ios safari.<p>Half the screen is the kagi sign up ad. Not a good show of the product.<p>Then it’s all black on white. 2026. Color. Contrast. It’s one of the pillars. Google figured this day 1:Dark blue links. Then the line spacing is too high. Information density doesn’t feel right.<p>Overall 2/10 experience for a 10/10 product.</p>

<p>Why would you use a national aggregated statistic for a local regional issue?<p>If that 1 bucket is 1 of 2 available to you then it’s a huge issue with climate change increasing risk of draught and extreme weather events.<p>And cheap water is a very tiny factor in locating a data centre.</p>

<p>The math subreddit is awful. Accusing everyone of asking homework questions if they weren’t formatted in perfect math notation.<p>Then there’s the godot subreddit. Asked 2 questions? That’s a ban.<p>Imagine a child learning math or game dev coming up against that.<p>I’d quit. Curiosity extinguished.<p>The godot github has one of those characters now too. Really anti new user. I worry, I worry.</p>

<p>It’s selling to collectors not genuine players. It’ll catch dust after week 1. Sales will crash out.<p>This is why you never wait to sell a product once the work is done.<p>Once the buyer has the card out do the deal. Never stall. You are never too big to fail.</p>
