- TheAceOfHearts 9y agoSoftware has become more increasingly complicated over time. Aside from adding new features, many companies have improved their efforts of providing accessible applications to a international audiences. Let's not forget we've drastically increased security by writing applications in safer languages. Oh, and newer applications tend to support a far wider variety of devices types, displays, inputs, etc. Developers definitely be investing a lot more effort into improving the status-quo, but it's unfair to claim stuff is slower without improvements.
