If I were PM at LinkedIn, I would do some cross social network info pollination to correct the LinkedIn. I would promote power users from bluesky or twitter who are technical or otherwise have lot of good analysis. Experts are prolific users and make use of Zipf’s Law to promote good content. Also through graph analysis, the users who get followed by power users will be promoted as well. Whatever you might say about Instagram and Tiktok, their recommendation system is SOTA. I even love ads from Instagram, they know exactly what kind of ads I might engage with.
replyIt's not as bad as JIRA, although JIRA is marginally more useful than LinkedIn.
replyJira’s problem is that it’s effectively free-form, and there are no enforcements in place. You can have three teams - one using kanban with relative estimates, another using springs with story points, and a third using waterfall with time estimates - all in the same project, with the same workflows, and conflicting requirements. You have 3 different release fields, 2 are required, the third one is the one that your team are generating reports from.
replyThat and its dog slow, of course.
Jira (hasn’t been JIRA for a long time) is great when you have proper Jira governance in place, with admins who say “no, you can’t have a new custom field, use this one with a new context”, configure good workflow transitions with validators and conditions, design appropriate create, view and edit screens (instead of using the same one for three separate operations), etc. The problem is always crappy administration, not Jira. Jira can be fantastic when properly managed.
replyIronically if you use jira you probably should be using LinkedIn to escape it.
replykinda offtopic but as somehow currently outgrowing trellos capabilities, do you have any good suggestions instead of Jira?
replyThe answer is unfortunately jira.
replyGitlab has pretty good Kanban functionality. People tend to hate Jira but there aren't a lot of great alternatives
replyLinear
replyBoth of them are equally garbage.
