असली फ़र्क
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. Shortcut counters with Kanban and timeline views built for dev sprints and Deep GitHub, GitLab, and Sentry integrations.
Linear's Achilles heel: built for devs by devs — non-technical teams will feel alienated by the workflow assumptions. Shortcut's: non-technical teams struggle with the developer-centric terminology and workflow assumptions. Pick whichever weakness you can live with.
