Yep. Word for Windows 6 was pretty much the end of the road for word-processor improvement. It has been nothing but regressions since, to the shitshow that is Word today.



I really liked iTunes at some point around 2006 and then it got progressively worse, dropped my favorite features, and I no longer touch it.

All I needed them to do was improve performance for large libraries.


meanwhile after 20 years, foobar2000 only gets better with each release. I even still use (the Windows version) on my Mac thanks to Wine. The memory footprint of Music.app when I load a large playlist is an order of magnitude greater than that of foobar2000 despite all the overhead that comes with Wine.


I'm sure it's just a matter of taste, but I never liked foobar2000 despite hearing from people who loved it for a very long time.


This.
