I've used React Native for a client and, whilst it was super clunky, I still enjoyed being able to write React to deploy to mobile. With React Native for Web, you can technical write code that writes to a bunch of different platforms, a big selling point for businesses.

I've had an AWS account manager suggest to me to use Auth0 rather than Cognito for some scenarios as well.

I am not a fan of Material UI (and especially the Material UI library for React). It looks kinda gross and it's really difficult to customise.

Also, you've made a very common mistake of setting `outline: none` to your focus states! Very bad for people who navigate using a keyboard.

Good job on launching, by the way.

Anti-vaccination isn't exclusively an American phenomenon. It just seems like it because most commenters would be Americans or foreigners who live in bubbles. I remember in high school in Australia about a decade ago, there was one kid who was said innoculations were akin to "injecting garbage into your bloodstream".

I also frequently give blood in Australia and there are also more and more warnings about measles and stuff (interestingly regarding neighbourhoods that tend to vote very progressive).

Anecdotal evidence, however!

I'm super loyal to the Microsoft Basic mouse. It lasts forever whereas all the Logitech M100's that I've purchased (and I've purchased a lot of them) don't last more than 6 months. Sad!

I use both Office for Mac and Windows all the time and Office for Mac is pretty reliable IMO. They pretty much have feature parity. Which features are you missing?

Where is the funding going to come from?! As a non-American, I get worried by all this funding when America is in serious debt. :(

This is just an anecdotal alternative but a lot of my Australian co-workers are eschewing all the US political turmoil and are still choosing to emigrate to America.

Tabbing through the page is kinda annoying because they've set outline: 0 on all the buttons.

Can you tell the difference between American and British English speakers?

I didn't realise that there might've been a pattern! A lot of the Uber drivers I talk to in Australia also claim to do accounting on the side.
