Mine is that the useState hook is an actual plague on the entire React ecosystem. Regardless of your opinions of React, if you wanna use something then use it right.

Everything go so 'simplified' that it now takes 5 clicks for things that used to take 2.

Categories are hard and everyone began searching for settings.

They either grow and change until they're not what they used to be, or they die out.

Yes, web communities are always growing and changing. Can people let things change (sometimes for the worse) without always interpreting as some sort of personal attack? It's exhausting.

But we need to always be wary of monopolization

Yes, true, but consortiums and defacto standards are the only way these things can exist in the first place.

Sorry, I'm just confused what you suggest instead

I should have said it better, no 3rd party apps, just 3rd party inteegrations. You want WhatsApp? Cool. Add it to the "messages" app as an account. You want a calendar? Sure it's got one. You want it to talk to a different calendar? Sure, what's the ics address? You want your music player to support a weird file type? Sure, add a codec. You want an app that does something I haven't thought of? Cool, make it a PWA.

But I'd be unhappy with my games safe and secure.

Yes, preservation and backing up is important, but I'd rather just take on private equity. I don't have time for live services anyway.

I just hate that it actually works

People spent the whole 90's and most of 2000's complaining that computers were being shoved onto them and they didn't work. They've incrementally gotten better and now people hate that it does work.

When you've killed all the bad guys, and when it's all perfect and just and fair, when you have finally got it exactly the way you want it, what are you going to do with the people like you? The troublemakers. How are you going to protect your glorious revolution from the next one?
