    How many open source projects have 50 million lines of code like Windows, or legal agreements related to backwards compatibility and version support guarantees?

    A for-profit company is going to focus on whatever generates revenue, sure. But crappy software will lose customers in a non-monopoly scenario. They’re not exactly incentivized to make broken things nobody wants.

      They are neither incentivised to make quality of life improvements to their software. Thats why i hate most of them
