Yup, Jira is indeed very hatable before knowing its implementation details.
I don't know if it's a strong argument for Java however, saying that god-awful software written in it is universally despised, but for reasons other than the language choice.
- negamax 3y agoSaying that a software is god awful when it's commercially successful is not a good argument. Certainly tons of people and orgs out there are deriving value out of it. I still have to see anything that comes closer to Confluence for arranging organisational knowledge
- animuchan 3y agoDo you imply a positive correlation between quality and commercial success? I don't think I can name many instances of this, really. E.g. by far the most commercially successful video games are the bottom-of-the-barrel casinos for kids.
- negamax 3y agoI am implying that there's evidence that more people like it and are willing to pay for it than people not finding it upto the mark. Yes, that's the definition of a successful software.

- watwut 3y agoOh, how I hate our management for forcing SharePoint on us.
- Arch-TK 3y agoSoftware success seems to be 90% about advertising and finding innovative ways to destroy your competition. Microsoft are the masters of that approach.
