Trello pricing just got a lot more reasonable, but there is one feature that might get me thinking of moving: conditional logic in automations.

Be advised that Trello is now $5/mo. It's gonna be hard to compete here.

You can’t trust US companies anymore, they easily can become a weapon in a trade war.

What's an example of a US company being weaponized in a trade war?

There are plenty, but most obvious nvidia which cannot even ship gpus to greenland currently.

Is there a ton of industry reeling on that issue? Or is that closer to a silly example?

I wrote "can become".

We are just one executive order away.

Just look what they try with Harvard. The EU is an easier target. Just ban M365 for EU use.

Think of this at a larger scale

Beware of European companies too if there is a WWIII. Beware of Asian companies because China is not far away.

What a weird comment.

I don’t think it’s weird to worry about this sort of stuff, although I think trello would be quite far down the list. I’d worry about the impact of Ms being weaponised first.

We are already on the brink of a full-blown trade war.

It was already bad thanks to the CloudAct, but now it got worse. The previous adminstration at least tried to value the rights of EU citizens. The US now have the same trust level as China. Congratulations. At least China's support for Russia is more hidden.

And the US already showed what happens if you don't comply to US wishes

Show me any other country that did this to their allies.

Indeed...we are the only country that uses trade to influence others. You got us.
Re:Kan.bn – An open-source alterative to Trello by croes on Tuesday June 03, 2025 @02:39AM (#44167069)
Who said use of trade? The threat are sanctions to ban the use of the software, like they cancelled the ICC investigators bank account on behalf of the US.

https://www.lbc.co.uk/world-news/british-icc-chief-prosecuto...

You're the only western country that enforces their sanctions on third party countries.

For instance a german customer can't pay a german merchant via PayPal if he buys Cuban cigars, despite it's done by PayPal Europe S.a.r.l. et Cie s.c.a.

And don't forget the things with Greenland.

The threat are sanctions

Which is trade. Thanks for playing.

Saying things like “thanks for playing” goes against the HN guideline of “avoiding snark”.

You can't trust companies. Indeed, you never could.

WTF? Atlassian is famously Australian (although they have a terrible security law that should make people nervous).

The American-Australian so they fall under der CloudAct
