when you log in to the dashboard, there’s a survey. so folks who go directly to an edit page from your history, you’re hereby informed
let’s talk about the questions
1. When choosing to use Glitch (either now or in the future), how important is a more customizable developer environment?
for me no. except for indentation, and that’s only because using spaces is wrong. if it did the right thing, then no customization would be needed.
ok real talk though, the homogeneity is nice, and we can be on these forums discussing how to get things done on glitch without too much “wait are you using zsh or bash” and “I only know how to do that with yarn, if you’re on npm you’re on your own”
2. When choosing to use Glitch (either now or in the future), how important is “Time to Edit” aka minimizing the time it takes from initially setting up the environment to actually coding your idea?
fast container wakeup is nice to have.
but to consider setting up/configuring/installing a development environment as somehow a different activity from moving your hands over to the keyboard and typing res.end('hello world'); I think is not on the right track. it’s all part of development. let us get straight to development, even if the first step is to install something from npm rather than typing out a function definition in a .js file.
3. When choosing to use Glitch (either now or in the future), how important is it for others to be able to find your apps?
people being able to see my apps is great, but I think it has to be explicit in what I choose to share.
this isn’t about me wanting projects to be undiscoverable to the extent of having being private without paying 
, but the nature of the content we make on glitch is really hard for the general public to get enjoyment out of until it’s, like, pretty much done. compare “look at this carved wooden post I made. I’m gonna build a stool with these as the legs” vs “here’s the response handlers for my site where you’ll be able to share ascii art poetry. I haven’t chosen what to use as a database yet, so you can’t use it yet.”
the gallery in the forum has been nice. users post projects when they’re ready. and we can write as much as we want to introduce them
4. When choosing to use Glitch (either now or in the future), how important is it for your app to be always on/never sleeps?
certain kinds of programs need this. for myself, I still have a lot of things I want to do on glitch that don’t require it. and for programs that do need always-on, I have other places to run them
5. Additional Items (optional) If you have anything else not mentioned that is important to making the decision to use Glitch, please list them here.
I had a bunch of these in a post somewhere, don’t remember where though
edit: “The goodness of Glitch”
6. … and finally (optional) How did you originially [sic] hear about Glitch?
