How are Adobe and Slack/Salesforce doing?

Are they hurting for customers?

the people that USE the software the most are not the people BUYING the software. it’s why all enterprise software has trash UX.

do you think i as a software engineer like using Jira? Outlook? etc? Heck even the trendy stuff is broken. Anthropic took took 6 months to fix a flickering claude code. -_-

McDonald’s isn’t hurting for customers either. Doesn’t mean their food is anything a chef ought to aspire to.

Neither it means that McDonald's should aspire to be a chef

Sure, aspiring to mediocrity at a cost to others is a choice.

McDonald's is renown for speed of service, a bit ironic to compare that to slow apps

Not relevant point though. I was answering to this "I don't recall a single complain about RAM or disk usage of my Electron-based app to be reported in the past 10 years", I wasn't arguing that such apps don't make money.
