🧘 1Feed from Ethan

“Best indie product of 2021 by far!” - Ferminrp
“I love the idea of taking the dopamine out of a feed. Great mission!” - Justin

💌 Rollups from Danielle Johnson and James Ivings

Rollups is the second product from this bootstrapping team as part of their overall mission to help people take back control of their emails. Rollups bundles all of your mailing lists into one weekly digest email. It follows Leave Me Alone, an email unsubscription service.

“You really upped your game” - Francesco Di Lorenzo
“Love the Rollups. It keeps getting better and better...” - Fajar Siddiq

💡 Product Lessons from Linda Zhang

Product Lessons are actionable lessons to accelerate your career. Linda was inspired to create this library of resources after finding there was an overabundance of theory on building products, but a scarcity on how to apply those ideas.

“That's one hell of a collection, and I love it :D” - Rashika Ahuja
“It really helps you develop the intuition and mindset of developing great products” - Hiba Ganta

In the launch of Product Lessons, Linda noted she was a long-time lurker, first-time launcher. She shared with us how she approaches the mindset of being a maker.

Figma’s Config, the annual design conference, kicked off digitally yesterday and with it came the launch of FigJam, an online whiteboard for teams to collaborate and brainstorm.

There's some debate going on about what this means for Miro (which launched remote meetings and live embed not too long ago).

Weigh in.
