There are some things that I don’t need to know, like how much money I’ve spent on iced oat milk lattes or the sheer number of pens I’ve purchased this year — and how many of them are already lost. (Where do they all go?) And yet, apps keep finding new ways to quantify our lives, presenting us with data we never asked for.
Enter “Your Year in Asana,” a feature that turns your 2024 work habits into a highlight reel — complete with task tallies, collaboration stats, and a subtle reminder that you’re either crushing it or teetering on the edge of burnout.
Don’t fall for the productivity aesthetic. It’s a scam.
Imagine my surprise when I opened Asana today (Dec. 5), only to be greeted by this stark reminder of our capitalistic times.
