Even programs that are _not_ done well, get replaced with infantile crap.
My wife really likes Scrabble, in-person ideally, but on-line as well. The iOS app was something you could sign in to, or play as guest, but with login you could play your friends. It was clearly buggy as hell, unstable, with all sorts of weird quirks. When it worked though, it was fine (enough).
They've basically started shoving users away, and now there's a new app. I think you might have to sign in with Facebook or some such nonsense, but anyway, it's like the expectation is that it's hung over a baby's crib. Flashy blinking cruft everywhere, and of course the board is shrunk to make room for the superfluous, distracting crap.
I'm sure the latter version is only populated by bots now, because it's well nigh unplayable for a human.
