Hey Kanban fans -

Trello? Jira? Other? Why?

I've gotten a lot of mileage out of Trello. Can go shallow or deep. Can't beat it for ease of use, robust free features, lot's of options from them/3Ps on the paid side. I haven't had a lot of success on data/tracking / reporting sides.

Trello doesn’t have task dependencies/relationships, which disqualifies it for me completely. I’ve also never seen it work for a team over a longer period of time as it becomes unmanageable - it’s too good at hiding information with its lack of structure.

JIRA is ok (assuming it was configured by someone who knew what they were doing), fantastic at task level plus all the flexibility you could dream of, but they really should put more effort into how boards work.

I have to use JIRA, so haven’t looked at alternatives in a while, but which tool will be best depends on your situation - team size, average project complexity and length, industry and so on.

Take a look at Clickup. Pretty robust tool. Only tool on the market taking on Jira.

Need hair advice for how to make my hair look ok for the office. I’m Korean, with thick, straight hair and I’ve never done anything to it - I never even blow dry it, and I’ve always worn it down. But through my 20s, my hair has gotten more and more coarse and frizzy. Insanely coarse and wirey with random kinks in the coarse strands — no hairspray, frizz cream, or oil has been able to calm it. I’ve tried deep conditioners too. I have 0 hair skills - are frizzy ponytails my only option?
