Public cloud trend, growing development and deployment stack complexity that takes consumes large portions of developer productivity away from quality and polish. We are expected to release features in limited timeframes, if so - and we have to battle what the cloud providers have been pushing in form of hundreds of services, multitude of stacks, or in frontend understand dependencies between thousands of packages to understand impact of a particular change, then we eat up time that we could've spent on quality. Unless of course there is a dedicated QA team that is responsible for testing - but that's obviously too expensive, and has its drawbacks itself, as can introduce the wrong mentality (outsourcing caring about quality to another department).
