What did you learn from the situation and how do you plan to grow Workspaces from here?

@kylerjphillips Main learning is honestly that I don't think I would ever sell a project and still continue working on it again. I lost some of the creativity and passion for the project over the past 2 years knowing that it wasn't truly mine anymore. If I ever sell anything again that will be it... walking away completely. Now that I have Workspaces back I'm excited to get back to growing it! Hopefully turning revenue on in some way. I also want to add things that should have always been included like Search or Tags.

That's like selling a prized possession for a fortune cookie and then snagging it back for a dollar! Talk about a plot twist worth a newsletter headline! What a rollercoaster ride - eager to hear all about your whirlwind experience!
