Youtube, twitter, and reddit have obviously been in the news a lot recently, but every day business applications also seem to just keep getting worse. Got new PCs at work which means version updates, and pretty much everything we use (autocad, adobe acrobat, and ms office, mainly) all seem to run much slower, despite the computers having substantially higher specs. Love that I can't use any old versions or alternatives because they refuse to grant me admin access.

I love capitalist innovation! Why make things better when you could just make them worse and charge more?

    Spotify has gotten worse every six months for like 4 years. I hate it.

      Part of the reason Foobar2k is my favorite audio player is that it hasn't changed significantly in the entire time i've used it

        Don't fuck with perfection. I use foobar to transcode my FLACs to Vorbis so I can listen to them on my Rockboxed Fiio M3K
