Can you help?

I have just launched a website for our new tool "Limits" and would ❤️ your feedback. Crucially, do you find it clear what it does? Really appreciate it!✌️

Limits - Feature flags, entitlements, permissions. Unified. Simplified.

Limits is the all-in-one platform for managing feature flags, entitlements, and permissions. Easy integrations with your favorite frameworks, including a Rails SDK powered by CanCanCan. Designed by developers to simplify access control for your applications.

@overcastfm @marcoarment I’d love to have this fixed as it makes it almost impossible for me to use now. This is in All Episodes. It doesn’t respect the Episode Limit for any of my podcasts so this list is already getting huuuuuuuge.

@marcoarment

I hope this is useful UX feedback on the new app. By the way, in most cases I’m liking it.

The way the “all episodes” button is highlighted and the others are not really confuses me every single time. It indicates to me that this is the active view below rather than linking to a new view.

So I constantly have to remember to click on the button that already appears to be active, to get to my podcasts.

Hopefully this is useful. Congrats on such an epic rewrite!

In regard to the NFC part about the #apple DoJ case, i have a real world example of how this affected us which is interesting. We have built a local commerce platform and wanted to use a tap to pay implementation that pays using bank to bank (open banking) via our own checkout. But Apple will not permit use of the APIs for the NFC for payments. This could save businesses £1,000s in transaction fees.

@sdw @[email protected] I am in the same boat, except when it comes to wanting to watch something while Elizabeth is using the TV, or while I am taking 3D cad lessons. I use the VP for the latter to have stuff spread around the room

For the last 2 or 3 months I have been nipping between Ivory/Ice Cubes, Posts, Threads and occasionally Twitter. I set all the UIs to be similar.

So far, Posts feels like going to a spa, Threads is like a wine bar, Mastodon is like a tech Meetup and Twitter is like being outside the roughest club in town at 4am.

Which X closes the window? (This is a screenshot of the app formerly known as Twitter, as viewed on #Threads). Based on a post by joelcloralt on Threads.

⚖️ Anyone else recognise this balancing act of family/parenting time vs startup/business?!?
