Probably not ideal for a non-tech example, but I love the improvements made to VS Code over the last 3 years. Plugin support and Azure integrations are insanely productive and nice.
It seems most people here look at a short period of history: they take some crappy software, like modern VS or Office and point that it improved from the initial very crappy version to a less crappy one. Hurray, progress!
What they don't take into account is how much crappier the whole "modern" range of product versions is compared to the original.
