I tried to convince my team to jump ship to Linear from ClickUp. Initially, we thought that ClickUp would be better than Jira, but ClickUp's horrible sync ends up making it slower than Jira since you're performing operations over and over again until they stick. ClickUp's strategy seems to be to churn out half baked features to get a really impressive feature comparison list to hide under a mountain of tech debt (that's how they got us during our trial, at least).

I used Linear by myself until the free-tier issue limit was used up. I can confidently say it worked great for me (the integrations and built in GitHub automation were killer for me, and worked with 0 config out of the box). However, I had trouble getting my PM on board because she was concerned that Linear was a great issue tracking tool, but we'd be losing too many capabilities from ClickUp. Personally, I'd rather have a targeted tool that does one thing extremely well rather than a tool that does 10 things poorly.
