It’s horribe, and getting worse every year.

I got a new company laptop after 2 years with double the RAM, and it still takes ages to open powerpoint or any other program. And not just Windows: I remember a time where iOS was snappy and smooth, not laggy and bloated. Web also sucks, even with adblocker. I try to find movie tickets, have to click a million times through a mobile-optimized page, instead of getting an overview of the weekly schedule like 10 yrs ago.

One of the best things about my workplace is a lean, no nonsense custom software that integrates HR, controlling, and some other admin things in one place. It looks like it was developed by somebody over a long weekend in the early 2000s. But it’s fast and it works, saving me a ton of admin time every day as a team lead.

We are switching to SAP next year.

Bro same, win 11 work laptop with an i7 and 64 gb ram and ssd. Absolute dogshit slow and freezes up daily.

My linux pc with a 15 YEAR OLD CPU and HALF the ram, runs 4x faster.

Also. Use kagi for search. Feels like 2006 again (peak internet age)
