Who cares if it just works? Who cars if it's made in Flash or in COBOL when it just works? What's sad about this? It just works right?


That's the problem: it does not work. I don't care if the programm is written in assembly or in rust as long as it functions properly. But when the blinking cursor stops blinking, when the scrollbar or window border is so thin that i cannot select it with a mouse, when the title bar is so cluttered with buttons that any click brings up a menu instead of being able to double click or click and hold, then _it matters_.

I stop here in order to not throw profanity at MS engineers.
