Comment on Show HN: Haystack – Visibility into How Software Teams Works

Comments

Seems this is actually vaporware. No screenshots, no actual demo/application and signing up with emails leaves a "you'll receive an email soon" but no email arrives. Ebook requires email to download, and ebook ends up saying same stuff as on website already.

Sorry that you felt that way. We had a few issues with our sign up flow, but that should be fixed now.

The ebook has additional content such as

- Mitigate Bus Factor

- Protecting Deep Work

- Avoiding Engineer Burnout

and explains each problem in detail.

Thanks for "fixing" the issue. Now instead of saying "you'll receive an email soon", it now says "Due to increased demand, we've had to place you on a short waitlist. We'll be reaching out shortly with a link to get started."

Please tell people upfront what happens when they "sign up", as right now you're employing dark UX patterns just to collect emails.
