While we are giving constructive feedback...

The sign up form is really annoying to me. I'm already not happy that I need to sign in to use a web browser (and likely to not pay $15/mo for one). But the sign up form keeps adding fields that must be answered before you're done. I'm okay filling out a form... but don't keep teasing that I'm done when I have 10 other questions to finish. This is not a very user friendly pattern.

Heya, thanks for the feedback!

We were trying to replicate a Typeform-like feel (questions, one by one) to make it more palatable but the goal isn't to bait you into thinking you're done.

Do you think we're missing something to replicate the feeling of a nice Typeform, or do you think Typeforms in general are similarly annoying for you?

It was just not knowing how long the form was... it felt like it was a choose your own adventure where my answered dictated what the next question was (which was obviously not the case, just the feeling I had).

I think something like a (1/10, 2/10, etc...) in front or behind the question would have been helpful. Then you at least know how many more questions there are.

Congrats on the launch -- first contact with potential customers must have a lot of little things like this.
