Linear for anything engineering-focused. The keyboard shortcuts and speed make a real difference when you're context-switching constantly.

For smaller projects I've gone back to a simple GitHub Projects board — sometimes the overhead of dedicated PM tools isn't worth it when the team is under 5 people.

+1 to Linear being fantastic. At this point, my biggest gripe with it (in comparison to Pivotal Tracker) is that I cannot put a limit on how many issues can exist in a certain state. Tracker used to do this very well with velocity.

I'd be very happy if I could set a max limit of 5 on the "todo" state of a certain team. Helps a lot with prioritization and poorly done planning.
