This looks a lot like the new pinkish Dropbox re brand. So much that I was sure it's a new Dropbox product. They also have a product called "Paper" which confused me even more

To me, this is a super niche product. As expected (from fiftythree), the apps are beautiful. However I found the lack of editing features to be "limiting" as opposed to "simple". The collaboration aspect is interesting but definitely not at $8/month per user. It might be a nice to have but existing productivity suites (from bigger players) have significant overlap of features.

This is coming from someone who uses the "Paper" app (also by fiftythree) religiously on my iPad Pro.

Super niche? PowerPoint slides are the format of choice for communication and thinking in the corporate world. If Paste could take even 1-2% of that market they would have it made.

Everybody thinks they can get 1% !

Ha yeah. If it was easy to get 1%, then a hundred more people will enter the market after you and take 1% each and leave you with nothing :)

I called it "Super niche" as a nice way of saying "borderline useless for most people"

Do these hip young companies realize how much historians are gonna be pissed at them?

"Paste"

"53" or is it "fifthythree"?

What happened to being unique?

Or even searchable FFS!
