Anyone using linear without the rest of their team adopting it yet? Obviously the full benefits will only be realized when everyone is using it, but I'm still curious to hear if people are benefitting from using it to manage their own work.

I work with two long term clients (one has two projects going on, the other three), plus I have my own personal projects. Linear has become a vital part of my workflow. The first thing is that splitting tasks by teams (client 1, client 2, and me) and then by project for each team allows me to do some neat stuff:

1. I have a global view, where i can see the status of each single ticket. I use this because when I’m selecting my next task. I don’t know if I’m gonna choose something from client 1, client 2, or my personal project

2. I have a “bug” view that aggregates every task with a bug label, it’s the first thing I check when selecting a new task, same reason of .1

3. I have a view for each client, that aggregates the tasks from every project of that client. I use this when I’m doing a call with the client and I have to update them on the status of each project

Before Linear I was using multiple Trello boards and then using a power up to sync all of them in multiple aggregation board, to essentially replicate the same workflow. Also, it feels more native then trello, it’s quicker than Jira and the key lard shortcut are super handy when I’m creating a lot of tasks, since I have to duplicate each task from the client ticketing system.

Thanks for sharing, that's helpful. I'm also using multiple trello boards to manage my own work while our team uses Jira (which is awful).
