What appears to be a huge jump in quality of life, leading to fast development, better flexibility and improved scalability, turns out to be a huge pain. Constant context switching, increased stress from observing and understanding all the interactions, and the hazardous nature of adding changes to your services will easily make you burn out and lose motivation for your work.

Software today often feels frustrating. Core features are needlessly scattered across multiple apps, cloud services regularly glitch, and even expensive banking apps are a chore to navigate. It seems we lack the care to make things reliable and secure.

Why is this? Are we too distracted to focus? Do trendy buzzwords outweigh solid engineering? Has the ease of modern coding tools led to developers who don't understand the basics?

And what about AI? Could the rise of AI-powered development make things even worse before any improvements arrive?

What are your worst software nightmares?

Reliability and security often feel lacking too.

I have a few theories why this happens: Are we all too distracted to do focused work? Does the industry focus too much on the newest trends rather than building things right the first time? Have easy coding tools led to devs who don't grasp the fundamentals?

Plus, what does the rise of AI mean for software quality? Could things get a LOT worse before they get better?

What are the worst examples of bad software that drive you crazy? Are there shining examples of exceptional quality that give you hope?
