User facing changes are usually the tip of the iceberg for most mature companies. Feels very naive to judge a large company that deals with complicated licensing, sales, marketing by some pet peeve feature you are missing in the app.

Not really. The engineering roadmap of large public companies optimize one thing: stock price. Gone are the days of working on features that benefit the user. That’s called enshittification

It feels like everyone learned the new word "enshittification" this year and is just using it in any context possible.
