Season 4, Issue 10: Jam on Jelly 🍌🍓
An especially great Good Enough update
This is a newsletter many, many months in the making. The Good Enough team has popped the tops off some champagne lately, because…
1. Jelly is open for business!
We’ve swept the dusty floor and taken the paper down from the windows. The waitlist is closed for good and we are ready to welcome the masses. Yes, it’s true: anyone who wants to can now sign up for a Jelly account! 👈 🥳
Jelly is an awesome way for a team of people to share an email address (or several addresses). It helps keep everyone on the same page by making it clear who’s replied to a conversation, or who’s intending to reply. There’s also a private discussion feature for sharing relevant details and context with your teammates, and an activity stream so you can quickly catch up on who did what.
If you and your team are still sharing a single login to an email account, Jelly will feel like a revelation. We switched from a shared Fastmail account to Jelly months ago and we’re never going back. There’s no more stepping on toes, conversations slipping through the cracks, or passing of links and subject lines back and forth in Slack.
Check it out:
Jelly is simple, intuitive, and affordable — we opted for per team pricing so your whole crew can come along. (Who wants to pay per person anyways!?) It's going to save you some serious $$$ compared to the more expensive and wildly more complex options out there.
Not to mention we’ve got the best mascot in the game!
We hope you’ll come check Jelly out. And if you’re not part of a team or group who needs to share an inbox, start one! Or at least tell your friends about us.
(Speaking of telling your friends: We’ve also launched Jelly on Product Hunt and would appreciate your reviews and upvotes 🙏)

2. People like Pika
Pika has not gotten lost under all that Jelly. In fact, October saw the most new monthly subscribers in our history! (It certainly doesn’t hurt that some blogging alternatives have gotten, well, weird.) New features galore:

3. Sharing is caring
Do you like links? We do, too.
Trust us that Cabel Sasser’s XOXO talk is worth 19 minutes of your life.
HTML for the People believes HTML is useful for anyone and we couldn’t agree more! (especially since we built a place for you to host your HTML-based projects)
We couldn’t stop dancing to this lovely D&D animatic from Eva Figueroa.
Lettini thinks you should really see The Substance and it should win all the awards. Trigger warning for both gross-ness and real-ness.
4. In Conclusion
We are really excited to launch Jelly and hear what you have to say. One of Good Enough’s primary aims is to build simple, delightful, affordable software for folks who haven’t really had any great options before. Jelly is perhaps our biggest embodiment of that ideal yet.
We’ve got lots of great ideas for ways we can make Jelly even more delicious in the future, too. Stay tuned!
