Ensō is a writing tool that helps you enter a state of flow by separating writing from editing and thus making it harder for you to edit yourself - https://enso.sonnet.io/

After 6 years and 2 million words of daily writing I feel like I've learned enough to make Ensō simpler and more accessible.

To the OP: Great product, at least can you update the description text to guide newcomers with some user persona.

We don't know what it is based on the description, so even the simplest "Try xyz" or even some goal would help us discover what it is.

Just trying to maximize your efforts... to optimize for first-time user usability, unveil to yourself regular use cases for your users, etc.

Yeah, to be frank, this was intended to be more of a devlog entry for the people who already know my work/follow me on untested and I didn't expect any responses on HN. Still, that's a big lesson for me, I shouldn't have made that assumption posting here. People have been really kind and responsive in my experience.

I think this is also a problem of framing.
