Recently re-discovered this gem of a blog post, written in 2018 by Nikita Propokov, about his disenchantment with the state of modern software. Do you think it’s still relevant today (perhaps more/less so than it was when it was written)?

It only got worse, and now that enshittification is in full effect for most big name consumer software, the speed at which things are falling is rising exponentially.
I only expect even worse now that AI has become mainstream and companies are half baking it into every notepad they find.
Funnily, due to this, i often find an open source app that is way better than whatever annoyed me.
Just today i used an Adobe product that got me raging. Within minutes i installed an oss equivalent that was a joy to use in comparison.
It’s an interesting trend.
