Its taking what used to be knowledge and hacking it into some mush of single service company word salad. Which could be completely different salad for someone doing the exact same thing. Its often debatable if it even is saving time/effort. May the gods help you if you have some weird issue that is not in the FAQ page of any of those hundreds of companies.
It makes me think of some old alchemy style thinking. Oh you have hot blood let me meditate to the gods and see what they think will cool you down. BOINGO is loading slow! Let me look through the list of 8000 micro SaaS and see which of their 'magic' will accelerate away my problem for $5.99 a month.
Unrelated but https://carrd.co is depressing. I didn't see a single person over 22yo in their hundreds of example templates. I guess grizzled old late 20 somethings and up can just start shopping for tombstones.
I don't understand what this is trying to say.
To "write into a WYSIWYG editor like Word" and "write into their website canvas" sound like the same thing. The structure of the sentence, though, suggests that not only are they not the same thing, but that they're in opposition. Again, I can't make sense of this.
This shows up in the context of a section about forms. It would make sense, I guess, if the sentence said that people want forms and don't want a "WYSIWYG editor" where you write "into the website canvas". (Whether that's true or not, however, is a different matter.) That's not what it says, though.
I feel there's great benefit with collecting [core] data upfront which affords you to do things like suggest a bio based on your title and name using GPT-3 to mitigate the blank page problem.
