Bullshit. Its on a quest to monetize the platform, thats all its doing.

If it wanted to be a better communication platform it wouldnt be adding all this pointless superfluous shit that exists only for nickle and diming.

And somehow making the UI worse every single update. HOW?

Taking lessons from Valve and steam, I suspect.

I genuinely don't understand how these companies go "Okay, we have a very elegant, simple, sleek, and fast interface here..Heres what we should do, we should completely fuck it up, make it slower, and make it require more resources for absolutely no reason"

It's just paycheck justification. "Look we did something, we are useful"
