Discord, 1Password, Slack, GitHub Desktop, VS Code.

these are all also the results of bad design choices or a lack of resources?

I've used 3/5 of those programs significantly and have issues with all of them relating to software quality. Especially discord. So bad I have 4 different servers actively trying alternatives.

When discord and slack started the company was not large so it definitely could have been a lack of resources. Could also have been a bad design choice.

I'm not alone on that either at all. This is a pretty common opinion.

Claude had a chance to really show something special here and they blew it.
