Is that collaboration though? Or that's just for your own use?

Is that collaboration though? Or that's just for your own use?

Let me hop in here because you just said a key phrase that lines up with something I have changed my mind about.

Which now I believe, and I used to not believe. Software can't solve people problems. I used to think you could just throw software at darn near anything. And I used to be like, let's do this. I solve problems with software. I'm going to solve your problems with software. Let's make some software. Yeah.

And now after years of trying to do that, and sometimes it works and most of the times it doesn't. Software can solve some problems, but it can't solve people problems. And collaboration ultimately is a people problem. Now, can it help? Yes. But can it actually solve it? Can you find the one true tool that's going to finally make us collaborate better? I just don't think you can do it.

I mean, a lot of what you're talking about here is like people don't want to do that. I mean, I know that I'm not a fan of this new idea to go back to Notion. Because we've done it before. And that's why I haven't asked you to do it. Yeah. And I'm like, well, I thought I was using Obsidian now. And I'm happy with Obsidian. And most of my stuff doesn't need to be shared.

And when I do, it's a markdown file. But I'm not dealing with third parties as much as you are, like external entities, like our customers. And so I don't have to make it look nice. It can be H1s and H2s, ultimately. And so... For me, Notion is cumbersome and too much, just like Jira is for some people. And if I can avoid it, I would love to, because it's like you said, it's one more place to go.

Did I put that in Notion? Did I put it in Cine? Right now I'm living in one world. I'm happy for my notes, at least. And that's a people problem. Like you, you have to convince me, I guess, that it's worth it. Or I have to just be like, all right, I'll try it for you. And then we'll see where it goes. And we've done this with lots of tools over the years. Trello, Notion. Uh, did we do Pivotal?

Did we do Pivotal Tracker, me and you? Probably not.

GitHub projects. Yeah. I'm just thinking off the top of my head. I'm sure there's others. And the problem is like, everybody thinks differently and we think differently at different times. Like that's the, the real people problems. Like my tastes have changed over the years too. to where like what I used to think was good, I don't think is good anymore.

And so I have to even convince myself to stay with a tool, even if I'm not collaborating, you know? I'm like, you know what? This used to be cool, but now I'm just thinking, not cool. And then later on, I think, you know what? Trello was pretty cool. maybe we should use Trello again. And I go back to it. I'm like, Oh no, Atlassian ruined it by putting a bunch of other crap on top. Yeah.
