Please for the love of god do not decide for me where I want to be.

I signed up, confirmed my email, opened the app and was browsing through it and was on settings tab when I got a phone call. During that call I had to look up something so I opened a new tab. After the call I went back to resend's UI to watch it blink and all of the sudden I'm on the dashboard again.

So I tested it, I went to the settings page again, switch to a different tab and then back to Resend again just to watch it switch back.

There is absolutely ZERO reason for this functionality. It is not a better UX, it's an annoying UX you do not know what I am doing or where I want to be on your website.

Could you not find a million other ways to provide this feedback less abrasively? People like you unnecessarily exacerbate the stress of launching a new endeavor.

I'm sorry was I not asked to give feedback on a launch post? Did you not see this line:

> I would love to hear your ideas, experiences, and feedback on any and all of the above.

There's a difference between giving feedback and giving feedback with tact, no need to be so harsh even if you are right.

Wow, looks like almost all of their tweets/comments are exhausting.

Please don't bring in personal details (even public ones) from elsewhere as ammunition in an argument. I understand the impulse and I'm not saying the information is irrelevant. It's just not worth the cost/benefit of what it does to the threads. It only makes them meaner and more personal. Better to resist the temptation.

Criticism phrasing is important. Just because someone asks for feedback doesn't mean they're OK with an abrasive tone. Bugs happen -- I'm sure they didn't intend for the experience to be that way

That's pretty bad, looks like some UI bug. We're investigating it right now.
