Comment on Launch HN: Muddy (YC S19) – Multiplayer browser for getting work done

Comments

This is really cool! Congrats on the launch!

I think my usage of figma,sheets,etc. is 90% single player, until the moment of sharing my (maybe unfinished) work, where I go through an intense period of collaboration with others for an initial review, then tails off, and becomes async.

I can't see myself using muddy for the single player part, but it sounds interesting for after that initial intense collab process. Especially if the process includes multiple apps, as opposed to a single design review in figma etc. I find the longer running async collab is when I get the most scatterbrained across apps.

I felt this pain a lot. Never really resonated with all-in-one apps so we always had a few places to check for every project. Figuring out the right links was hard and prone to distraction.

In a way, we like trying new software. Downside is each app has the need to build their own slightly different file system, which makes finding things extra challenging. Wanted to solve with Muddy.
