Der wahre Unterschied
Both offer free tiers, so the real question is what you get when you start paying.
Linear stands out with Keyboard-first navigation and Cycles and roadmaps. Trello counters with Kanban boards and Power-Ups (integrations).
Linear's Achilles heel: built for devs by devs — non-technical teams will feel alienated by the workflow assumptions. Trello's: falls apart for complex projects — no native gantt, limited reporting, and boards get unwieldy past 50 cards. Pick whichever weakness you can live with.
Fazit
If you value keyboard-first navigation and engineering-teams, die den schnellsten, go with Linear. If kleine teams und einzelpersonen, matters more, Trello is your pick. Neither is a bad choice — but one will fit your workflow better.
