I use Jira at work and I still have no idea what the fuck it is, what it's for, or why it's so needlessly complicated. It's a list of text with some dates and names. Why is that worth shit?

It creates pretty productivity related graphs your manager/PM loves, that's the real usage.

Companies wanna feel special and have different workflows around tickets. Making customizable workflows that connect with a ton of different systems easily is a shockingly hard problem.

I feel like there’s a business opportunity to take 50% of Atlassians value and spin it up into something simple but getting the good 50% down is kinda hard as someone is going to miss one stupid feature that runs 40% of their workflows.
