Some additional feedback:

* I don't get workspaces. I assume they are for projects but currently there is only one workspace available so maybe a small explanation is in order.

- If I create a new page and hit the top-right Save button on the first guide page, it publishes the page with a public URL. I was expecting the app to save the current setup for further work.

- I'm not a fan of the two-column design for the dashboard as it implies there is a direct relationship between the columns, which isn't true (I'm probably thinking of a three-pane UI in Outlook where the second pane is a list of emails and the third is the contents of a specific email). I don't really see a reason for having two columns as the main layout for the dashboard.

+- I REALLY like that you can customize the sharable page URL when setting up a new page. However, the app allowed me to enter a custom slug without being on a plan (step 4), which got silently ignored and a randomly generated slug was displayed. BUT I was still able to go back and enter a custom slug in the page settings (step 4) and have it actually work as an public URL.

- Some of the pop-up windows have "Close modal" as the close button text.

- Almost every page - when in list view - has two buttons that do the exact same thing only the buttons have different designs and positions. Example: on Manage Pages (/[uid]/page), there is a purple "Create page (resume)" button at the top right corner AND a gray "+ Create a new Page" above the list of pages.

- On Manage Pages (/[uid]/page), Create a new Page gives the impression of being disabled as the text is gray set against a gray background. The same design issue occurs on other admin pages.

- I was able to set up a domain with an empty name field on https://admin.burner.page/[uid]/domain/create. I think it broke stuff because now I have one "unnamed" domain on /domain page.

- The CSS file for my test page is a whopping 500 KB.

+ I like that you can easily add a background image using Unsplash...

- ...but the Unsplash image version chosen is the biggest one, resulting in a image file that's 3.38 MB @ 6000x4000px.

- On Manage Upload, when in List view, images cannot be deleted from the drop down menu (the option is disabled).

Oh wow this is incredibly helpful feedback! Users will be able to have multiple Workspaces in the future, which is why I set this infrastructure up now. This will be useful for agencies. I can see how it’s currently confusing though.

The other issues are now in my list to address. Thank you so much for collating these. Please send me an email - I would love to send you a premium account as a thank you.
