       @feoh The answer, as always, is Capitalism. Smart people have been doing smart work on making computers better, more accessible, and generally easier to use and develop for over many decades. We have systematically thrown all of that work away over and over and over again, chasing dollars. It's all still out there, we have just chosen to drop the threads because selling something new is more profitable than improving something old.
