#2Trello is a great product. Its great that you find it useful and worth paying for. But you lost me right here..
>it’s paid and it won’t disappear overnight.
Thats a gross simplification. Perhaps your company paying for trello, and you blogging about it, makes it a little bit more likely that Trello will stick around and will "succeed". But it certainly does not do much to _guarantee_ that they will hang around for however long you want to use it. Much larger paid-for services have disappeared. The best that they can guarantee you is that they will try to make your data available to you in some form if they ever go away.

#5Fogcreek stated that Trello will not go away and i guess its a pretty safe bet as they are making their money (and plenty of it) elsewhere. Of course you can pay for it to feel better about it, but i dont think the success of Trello impacts Fogcreek a whole lot.

#6Subtle effects when you scroll can be fun, but this is over the top and distracting.

Supporting a product that you use regularly feels good.
Personally, I can afford to live without Evernote Premium as I don't upload much and don't use premium features as much. But still I'm a premium customer because they are doing a great job!

I am not saying that paying for it isnt a good thing. But it wont make much difference to the creator of Trello and wont impact the lifespan of Trello all that much. They can afford to shut it down whenever they want or to keep it running for as long as they want.

#9I honestly cannot understand why a post that is essentially saying, 'look, we spent money, because we are awesome'.
This is not why I come to HN.
