Sometimes I really have a feeling that God invented Jira to punish me
I really hate it . It's like working with an OCD and sinile old man .
More over this Jira comes with Entourage of duchbags that suppose to support it, but are stupid as fuck.

Agreed. Jira and bitbucket are really bad, laggy and buggy.

In my company I persuaded a switch to gitlab 4 months ago. It was the best decision.

Atlassian is Australian, so God definitely had nothing to do with it, more the other guy 😈

This is a real life proof (one of many ) that even the most disgusting and shitty software is making money and allowed to be used by stupid management.
This software standing out on my top most hated products...,,,🤬
(It's like talking a very old angry man with borderline personality disorder to work on customer service)
I really get skin irritation when using it.
Good thing my manager take on the ridiculous and mindfucking task to get an epic from defined to accepted.
All those redundant popup validations
Blhaaaa getting sick just thinking about it.
As a dev -
I would guess their code base is a living nightmare to maintain. Feeling sorry for the people working there.

Sorry guys Just venting/ranting.

@nibor this explains so much

I agree with the hatred towards Jira. But on the contrary, please tell me of another product with the same level of connectivity to wiki and other documentation.

Jira is cool to allow business and customer service members have their own interface, report tickets, bugs, get status, things like that. Then devs work on the tickets and all.

Then confluence is excellent for historical documentation and product documentation.

I understand it’s a painful product, but please tell me of another product with the same level of interconnected features? I can’t think of any

@champion01 In this level of product complexity and documentation there's none. I can admit to this. But it doesn't lower any frustration regarding this one
😞.

@dror I agree 100% with the shitness of Jira. It’s slow, janky, confusing as fuck, and no dark mode. But the level of features are excellent for larger businesses with multiple teams.

The other option is using 3 different products to accomplish this. The business probably already uses 3+ products for more things. So now they need to know 6+ products. I wish a more simple product would be invented

@dror Jira is our spite haha. I say those good features about it but don’t get me wrong, it’s slow and ghetto af

Try Azure DevOps. It's both shitty _and_ lacks features.

@ReverendLovejoy haha it’s so bad. The ticketing system in azure is as ghetto as it gets. It’s really stiff too and hard to work with.

It makes Jira look like a breeze. But point for azure because of dark mode. Other than dark mode it’s sooo bad you are right.

Is TFS any better? I’ve never used TFS. Only Jira

@champion01 I have never used TFS so I can only imagine DevOps is an improvement there.

Dark mode, well, dark mode is fine but all Microsoft's implementations og dark mode is complete shit.

@ReverendLovejoy yea all true points. I use the dark mode plugin for Chrome and it’s much better.

Tbh most of the Jira competitor apps suck monkey balls. Trello is alright until you get complex. Same as Todoist

Atlassian’s products are similar to MS products. They are barely doing the minimum to make the customes keep using it. Quality is shit, performance is shit, features are lacking and power users hate the crap out of them. And for some strange reason, every company keeps using their products as if nothing else exists.
