I don't actually use it that often, but when I do use Jira, every action seems to have a noticeable delay.
I don't remember it being like that a decade ago. Maybe there was a big rewrite or two that bloated things up?

There are quite a few competitors popping up, the main issue is that they all seem to be bootstrapped and don't have the funding to make a disruptive marketing splash.
In 13 years it went from something I pushed and installed at every client I helped with business processes, help desk, Dev… to an overbloated frustrating mess to operate and manage.
Just changing a dropdown field’s content now is hidden in sublayers that requires a bookmark if you are not toying with that on a daily basis.
(not everybody is an actual full time Jira admin, and a Jira admin should’nt have the mental load of an Exchange admin for such an application).
Happy to hear about alternatives experiences as well.
Couldn't agree more. I've got admin rights to quite a few systems, including Exchange, which is a pretty big ship,so to speak. However, having tried Jira it's hands down the most convoluted piece of software I've ever seen. It took me less time to spin up an instance on AWS+ configure its access to the internet than it took to make a few changes on Jira. God knows how they managed to do It.
