Re: 15 Years of Building Jefit
#2Would be good to hear more details about the journey from bootstrapped North Carolina house to a decent-sized team out west.
Is Jefit profitable now? Then?
What were revenues like during those times?
What's the software stack?
Interesting challenges (esp. from a tech perspective)?

#3Longtime Jefit user. I respect that it the enshittifiction (e.g. locking "volume" charts behind a subscription) has been slow enough to not force me to another product. I've definitely encountered many many bugs, but only a few that have resulted in partial data loss.
Lots of respect with allowing data export in a simple format like .csv
Did the "recent" exercise sort get removed?

I've been using the free tier for a few years. I want very little out of it -- really just something to say "do these exercises today".
The basics work well enough. I'd just as soon they didn't lock alternative exercises behind the paywall -- if my gym doesn't have a leg extension machine, what's a good alternative? It doesn't seem a lot to ask.
I'm well aware that I get what I pay for on the free tier. But I worked around it by googling an alternative and just substituting that instead. It's good enough for my extremely meager purposes.

I've been using it for a long time as well, but I'm really tired of the constant up-sell attempts. I really just want a dead simple app to track my work, and I really feel like Jefit is moving further and further away from that.
