Should we know what "link in bio" means? How is that a "personal dashboard"?

A link in bio is primarily used by social media influencers. It would usually link to their other social media pages, a merch website, and stuff like that. It solves the issue of most social media platforms only allowing one link

I wouldn't say a 'link in bio' page === personal dashboard. Having said that, this looks like a really nice link in bio product, congrats on the launch! I always see these services targeted to individuals, but have you considered targeting SMBs? So many restaurants, plumbers, etc. have TERRIBLE websites that they struggle to maintain properly for various reasons. I don't see any reason that a tool like this wouldn't…

I've always wondered if many company's website should simply be a high resolution webcam pointed at a chalkboard on their premiesis.

Good question. For the team: From the term "personal dashboard," I was expecting something that would allow me to track data that's important to me, locally, like if I want to track my sleep stats and my spending and my food intake and whatever else. That's what "personal dashboard" means to me, and I was excited for a self-hosted, open source, clean way to do that. Maybe that product exists, but sadly it has nothing…

Grafana miiiight be what you're looking for if that type of data is something you already have stored elsewhere.
