- dartos 2y agoOr don’t ignore criticism… idk
- SubiculumCode 2y agoAlso true. However, criticism in the vein of how to improve the project is different than criticism like: procrastination is useful!
- dartos 2y agoProcrastination may be useful. [1] (first thing from a Google search of useful procrastination) At the very least it’s not universally a bad thing. Instead of ignoring that comment, take it to mean “users may want a feature to allocate an amount of off time” or something. https://professional.dce.harvard.edu/blog/the-perks-of-procrastination/ https://professional.dce.harvard.edu/blog/the-perks-of-procr...
- SubiculumCode 2y agoOh I agree, but for people who suffer from excessive procrastination, its often due to things like ADD/ADHD that make it difficult to focus until something (like stress) focuses you. Also, I just don't think that its a criticism that is relevant to their product, as it is universally applicable to ALL productivity apps.
- mklepaczewski 2y agoDelaying action is sometimes useful. Procrastination is never useful. The deliberate decision to postpone something because it's beneficial is very different from postponing something because we prefer to read HN.
