As a customer of ClickUp, I have very little confidence in their engineering ability. Leader calls for “100x” development, and I think he’s being more honest than most - they may actually *need* to burn it all down to make it better, and now would be the time to initiate that.

Ah yes, ClickUp, the issue tracker that was so sloppy there wasn't a single person at my company who was upset about our switching to Linear, and which used several gigabytes of RAM on the main page. Excited to see 100x of this.
