When designing the sharing flows your app, you have to regularly remind yourself that there only four reasons people post things:
1. To sound smart
2. To be funny
3. To look hot
4. To look rich
The more your product obfuscates those goals, the lower your share rates will be.

What they really need is to solve a painful problem for people who will pay for a solution

Haystack (YC S24) is an IDE for exploring and editing code on an infinite, 2D digital canvas. It automates the tedious steps of software development so SWEs can focus on the important stuff.
Congrats on the launch, @AkshaySubr42403 and @HaystackJake!
