   I dont understand the hype

   I have used HubSpot, and I’ll be honest it wasn’t love at first use. People hype it as the all-in-one marketing/crm/sales tool, but for me it often felt more complicated than it needed to be.

   First off, the interface looks clean, but navigating deep menus and figuring out where things live took longer than I expected. Especially as a smaller user not an enterprise team it sometimes felt like I was learning a giant software just to do basic things like setting up an email or tracking a lead.

   The CRM itself works fine in theory, but customizing fields and pipelines was way clunkier than other CRMs I’ve tried. I felt like I was bending the tool to my process instead of the other way around and that’s backwards in my book.

   Another thing: some features feel half-baked or overly complex, especially if you’re not a marketing automation pro. Workflows, sequences, analytics they’re powerful, but they also require a lot of clicking and re-reading help docs before you get them right.

   And then there’s pricing. HubSpot’s free plan looks great on paper, but you hit limits fast and once you upgrade, it gets pricey quick for what you actually use. I ended up feeling like I was paying for a lot of features I barely touched.

   That said, HubSpot does have strengths it integrates a ton of tools under one roof and works well if you’re already deeply invested in their ecosystem. But for me personally? It never clicked the way simpler, more intuitive platforms did.

   Bottom line: HubSpot is solid and powerful, but I didn’t love it felt too big, too complex, and not really tailored to the way I work.

   Great CRM for Small and Growing Sales Teams

   We started with Hubspot and it has served us well for over 3 years now. Its a straight forward CRM that serves the needs of our sales team well without overcomplicating things with hard to configure settings or other functionality we don't need. The user interface is much easier to navigate compared to other CRMs I worked with in previous roles.

   🏁 Competitors: Salesforce, Pipedrive, Zoho CRM

   👍 Pros:    Easy to use ui|Great for small teams who just need a crm that works|Easy to get started with

   👎 Cons:    Lacks some of the more advanced features that require custom integration work, but we haven't needed those at our company.

• Native Instant Space Switching on macOS

  Every macOS user uses Rectangle.app — https://rectangleapp.com The ones who don't use it is because they don’t know it exists. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Native Instant Space Switching on macOS

  I use https://rectangleapp.com/ and enjoy it. I have shortcuts to move windows to the left/right half of the screen, and cycle between monitors. This, combined with native cmd+tab and cmd+` is enough for me. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Make macOS consistently bad (unironically)

  Rectangle [1] is pretty much essential for me because of this. I use only a few keypresses (maximize window, move to one of the halves of the screen horizontally) but that is enough. My mouse very rately interacts with the borders of any window, or those buttons. I had to click on the green one that you mentioned in order to see what it did (yuck).

• Make macOS consistently bad (unironically)

  I use Rectangle [1] for window management. I only use three shortcuts: full screen, left half of the screen, and right half of the screen. My editors and chrome are always running in one of these modes. But for other apps like Messages, Notes, Music, etc - yeah I don't usually expand them to full screen.
