Yeah, we like software. Probably every single person reading this site does. What we don't like is having constant new crap added that doesn't actually benefit us as users (like constantly-shifting user interface, new limitations that didn't exist before, "overhauls" that remove functionality we relied on or expected or were otherwise intimately familiar with). It's a waste of our time and energy, and causes stress.
Yeah, new functionality is neat, but it's an ignorantly-optimistic delusion to believe that frequent updates strictly involve new functionality. It's extremely common that updates involve literally zero benefit to the user, instead introducing some bullshit we didn't want like a "What's New?!" popup that now harasses every time you open the software (Miro, Discord, etc.), or a new notification icon that glows blatantly every time there's a new Awesome Sale available (looking at you, Guild Wars 2).
