I kinda feel like almost every change in the tech front since 2020 has made things worse rather than better in terms of QoL.

Most software for instance is actually less user-friendly now than it was 6 years ago due to enshittification, such as search engines pushing ads and purposefully delaying the desired answer so you scroll further and see more ads, to AI being shoved down our throats without our consent, to more features being locked behind paywalls.

As somebody who is using an iPhone from 2021 and a MacBook from 2019, I can assure you that the tech has greatly improved. My iPad from 2024, for instance, doesn’t overheat and have its screen pop off after 30min of use in the sun lol.

Never had any such issues myself. My phone from 2018 still works just fine.

On the flipside, I've stopped using a bunch of apps and services over the last year or so as they've gone to shit in terms of being intentionally worse to try to squeeze more money.
