In case anyone is interested, I ended up going with Helpscout: I find it to have the easiest/simplest interface. I also looked at Front, Intercom, and Zoho.

This looks cool but I would expect a big section on the home page about why I should trust you and upload my bank statements on your website. I don't doubt that it works but I'm frankly amazed that people have paid for this servic

To be fair, I've seen a lot of people who are married out of a fear of being alone and not necessarily because they were crazy in love with their spouse. I don't think "wife" or "husband" alone is enough of a k

Why would you mess with such a classic design if it's working?

I'd definitely use this if it were live. Don't know that I'd download an app for the service though, I'd much prefer a web interface.

This link should be pinned to the top of HN permanently: what a time saver! I've impulsively opened up HN at least 5 times today, then closed the tab feeling shamed by this link haha.

This is the kind of veiled talk that I can't stand. I'm left trying to decipher whether the person is serious or what they mean exactly. If my idea sucks, just tell me so and we can talk about why, don't beat around the bush

While I agree that a lot of technology these days is being used for dystopian/nefarious purposes, if you live in the US, I'd suggest a drive (or flight if too far away from TX) to SpaceX's Starbase rocket launch site in Boca

Glad to know I'm not alone: noise affects me disproportionately (both positive and negative -- good music is bliss to me) and the US definitely feels like the wild west when it comes to noise control

Take a look at Giga Texas' launch and let me know if you still feel that way. I wonder what you've achieved in your life that makes you think you're in a position to say anything about that man

Well yeah, I was saying this in a tongue in cheek manner, it would definitely be pretty bad for all those businesses

Would be funny if someone figured out a way to remotely set all gas pumps in the country to "release mode" simultaneously: I'm sure this would make for a memorable experience.

Whether I "need" it or not depends on how much of my future customer base I estimate will be EU-based. Believe me, I don't think these laws are very well structured (they're not even clear enough that you have to dig thr

by oliv__ 5y ago
Interesting suggestion but most of my customers are US-based so I feel like the impact on speed might outweigh the reduction in complexity?
88.
by oliv__ 5y ago
Yeah, this is probably the most pragmatic answer. It's a pain to implement and only adds more complexity to my setup for a tiny percentage of customers; but on the other hand the more I dig into the answers, the more unclear things get

I use the old SE and even big company websites are broken on that screen size: if anyone from Airbnb is browsing this forum, your home search is broken on the SE, the date filter popup covers up so much space that you cannot actually submit
