"Intuitive UI with Exceptional Support"
5/5
What do you like best about Linear?

I really like the UX and UI of Linear. It's very intuitive and stands out so much that many companies have been copying their UI. I also find the support great. I discovered a bug and it took me just 2 seconds to find the contact form, submit it, and the bug was fixed within hours. Additionally, the initial setup of Linear was very easy.
