Jira is completely awful and thus has the potential to take on any other form of awfulness.
Or is it Awfully-Complete? :)

Jira is the ultimate example of the concept of alienation. If Marx knew about Atlassian the Grundrisse would have been insanely lit.
The worst part is that every company with a tasks product works right towards Jira. Compare what GitHub issues were in 2014 to what they are today: https://github.com/features/issues

and they keep. adding. redundant. features

I'm 90% those features were among the top issues on github/github repo back when it used to be there. The joke was always about how barebones github issues were was a common thing troughout the 2010s. Once they added that whole "Projects" thing, the joke became how complicated it is.

2. That's the price you have to pay if you want the tool you like to have corporate buy-in
