I used to be a pretty big Atlassian fanboy. I'd default to most of their tools when they were available.
Before the new UI came around in ~2017 it performed pretty well and if you were judicious with customization it was easy to use. Everyone knows Jira so it was easy to get new people started with it. Then the redesign came out.
I opted in for a bit when it was in Alpha but bailed because I had trouble getting my job done in trivial ways. I'm normally pretty accepting and friendly to new UIs, even if its rough at first. I generally accept that I won't like most at first because it disrupts my workflow in the short term. Usually once I relearn the project its for the best. Not with this one. It's just so damn slow. It's terrible.
I'm not in a position where I pick our project management/documentation tooling anymore, but if I was I don't know what I'd pick. It used to be that I wouldn't think twice, now Jira isn't seriously in the running anymore. I think notion has beaten out confluence even if I'm still not in love with it.
