This concept sounds great. I despise Xero, and felt the same about QuickBooks before it. "Linear for accounting" basically already has me sold. Just please make it work for UK companies some time (from a YC22 Founder).
Love the concept, but if the core developers don't rely on direct relationships with non-government customers, then I assume this software is unlikely to meet my needs as a startup founder (or the need of most other readers here on HN).
Governments make perverse customers with needs and incentives that don't align with other regular users and customers, in my experience. So the lack of a paid hosted version of Docs is concerning to me in terms of their priorities, quality, and the future product focus of this otherwise promising (and much needed) app.
Tldr: being customer-focused and having a product led organizational culture is unlikely if you're building for government.
Can somebody explain core use-cases? Postgres UIs of various flavours are already pretty numerous. Is this for developers? BI people? Is it intended to run on existing production databases or only new small databases used exclusively by Mathesar itself?
No answers like "you can use it for anything" or "it's up to you" or "just like Airtable" please.
I'm interested in real world, specific use cases, so readers can position this app and figure out if it has any value for them.
Unfortunately 50% of the world's mailboxes are hosted by 2 companies. That means the open internet is far as email goes is already dead in practical terms for most people. When they block another host that host no longer has email network access.
