True, but the article as about how to maximize gsheets, not an article about the best tool for visual project planning. Lane, thanks for bringing up Coda.io! Cool box of tools!
I don't disagree. But, I've tried to use Sheets for project management and using a spreadsheet in a way it wasn't designed to be used has gotten me into trouble numerous times. I'm certainly all for creative use cases for things but it's valuable to know a given tool's limitations before building a business critical workflow on said tool.
Looking back I should really have been much more gracious in my initial post. So sorry for coming off like I did. "Terrible idea" isn't accurate at all for projects that are smaller in scope. Thank you for the thoughtful approach
