#32- Feedly, it almost makes me forget I'm really missing Greader.
- Stripe, docs, dashboard, landing pages--everything they do ends up being top notch.
- Github (this is a weird one), didn't really appreciate the care for the UI until I had to use Gitlab extensively, the worst offenders are the PR UI--everything looks so cluttered, and it doesn't happen on Github.

#33Step Two ( https://steptwo.app ) brings a smile on my face every time I copy a 2FA token from it. Especially when coming from Authy, which has by far the most horrible UI ever created.

It can't compare to i3. There's also this: https://github.com/koekeishiya/yabai , but I haven't tried it out because of the disclaimer: "You acknowledge that you understand the potential risk that may come from disabling arrow_…

#39It's a perfect example of a tool that looks terrible if you've never seen it before, but after learning its core concepts you will never want to use any other code review system. It's fast, it's optimized for daily use, and it doesn't attempt to woo you with flashy features up front.
