Clearly you haven't used anything from Atlassian or Microsoft yet.

Atlassian ain't that bad, but yeah, Microsoft really sucks at UI/UX design

I hate that Microsoft refused to update any of their UIs for the Windows server tools.

Like why the actual fuck doesn't the GPO editor have a fucking search bar or at least a way to use paths in some way. And why can't I just edit existing settings in the manager without opening the editor and navigating all the mess‽

I hate the fact that we need to use their shitty GUI in the first place, why can't this be done with commamd line tools or by editing configuration files? Something like Ansible would also be great. These are some of the reasons why Windows absolutely doesn't belong on servers and why Linux is just superior.

Pretty much everything in Windows and Windows server can be done with powershell.

For example here is how to read and edit GPOs: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/grouppolicy/?view=windowsserver2022-ps

I mean, surely it can be done, but it's not a good experience. Simple unix-like configuration files are much better. Yes, I tried Ansible with PowerShell on Windows, it was horrible. I don't recommend it.

Atlassian might not feel bad, but their products absolutely have gotten worse with every redesign. They used to be functional, now they're just flashy.

[–] drphungky 2 points 8 months ago

Atlassian is flashy?!? Jira is soooo bad.

[–] Dehydrated 1 points 8 months ago

Well thankfully I didn't have to use their stuff since 2020. But back then, it really wasn't that bad.
