I've used it for a couple of years now and honestly the hype around it is really unjustified. It does the job but it's nothing special. I could go back to Jira and see no change in productivity after a brief re-orientation period
The comparison to Jira is unfair, Jira is known for abysmal performance.
Linear was really, incredibly fast. We adopted it in 2021 and it was amazing.
Now it’s bloated. That’s the standard path for most software (Zawinski’s Law), and I’m not very excited when they ship another feature. Most of the new stuff isn’t for small players, they’re more of an alternative for medium and large businesses.
Self-hosted Jira _might_ be usable.
The Atlassian shared hosting one is a nightmare.
