It was good enough that most people couldn't really tell the difference.
And once we won enough share, then we went back and like tried to make our harness like good and smart and optimize and all those things.
But it was inverted from what everybody else was doing.
Everybody else was being like, you have to build the smartest harness and that's how you win.
We have a mid-level harness, but we are the most used.
And now we're able to creep up and actually have the best harness and are also the most used.
So I think it was an inverted strategy that we did that other people didn't fully understand.
Oh, that was a referred desktop app.
So the desktop app, I would say, I wouldn't even say that was...
That was mostly a mistake on our part.
So I love terminal stuff.
I do all my work in the terminal.
So our numbers are, we're going to hit like 8 million monthly active users.
I don't think 8 million people should be using the terminal.
I think it's a little over, uh, we have like too many users for what the product is.
I think a lot of them would probably have a better experience on, uh,
on a gui and we understood that very early and so we were kind of experimenting with like a web app with a desktop app and uh so we're like this is probably gonna be the direction things go unfortunately we were right like that is like where things are going but we didn't like treat that project too like we should have treated it a lot more seriously and try to get it like uh out there way faster and thought a little bit harder on the technical stuff so yeah we just kind of picked stuff and we didn't like think too hard about it and uh it ultimately was a mistake and we're moving back to electron now
Yeah, so initially we had that.
Because initially we were effectively a Cloud Code clone.
If Cloud Code did it, we did it.
