One example: Jira integrates with _everything_. It really matters that you can create tickets from Slack, send email to the management when epics progress, see Github pull requests linked to tickets, and so on.
We'll likely find something else once the self-hosted version expires in a couple of years, unless the cloud version gets up to speed.
Come to think of it, that's how Google became so popular too.
Now you can find everything you want. You’re welcome.
I agree jira is terrible. Other bug trackers I’ve used are somehow worse. Does anyone have anything they can recommend with a straight face? (Github issues are missing too many features for me. Jira’s sql-style language is just too useful.)
> Click your mouse on a non-interactive UI component
80% of the UI is interactive, but not marked as such. Have fun finding a 10px strip that won't turn into an edit workflow when clicked!
> Click your mouse on a non-interactive UI component and press “.”
Even using the keybindings (seriously everyone, hit "?" and look through them) events are lost. Want to create a subtask? It's not `.sub<enter>`, it's actually `.sub^H^Hsub^H^H^Hsub<enter><wait><tab><tab><give up and use mouse to focus a field, because it arbitrarily unfocuses fields>Title Of My Task<use mouse to find the submit button>`
They've done so much work to make it a quick UX but it's all for nothing when it randomly eats keystrokes and defocuses constantly. Maybe some of our add-ons are at fault, I'm interested in hearing if there are jira installs that aren't like mine.
