Easy answer is large unmaintainable code bases + “agentic engineering”

IDK with certainty if that's the reason, but I'm sure it's contributing.

I can’t remember where I read or watched this, but the argument was that the main problem with a lot of software is simply code base size. Once your code base is large enough , it can no longer really be understood as a whole which leads to performance issues/bugs/vulnerabilties. I think that’s just an unavoidable part of large software.
Agentic engineering is probably not helping since it tends to accelerate growth of LOC. I also personally think quality is an issue as well but it could be a skill issue on my end idk.

I agree with you on the large codebase issue. That's a very real thing.

It could be that the apps you are using are spying on you and slowing down your experience. Try these non-spying apps: https://prism-break.org/en/

It'd be really hard for me to change my current social media stack. As it is, I don't use much of it, but if I switch away from these apps, I'm not sure if there are better alternatives to these. Like, for instance, YouTube. I don't think they're an equivalent to it in terms of the content.
