Jira is the worst project manager software, except for all the others - Churchill
I would take literally anything above Service Now.

No consultancy can ever make Jira fast. It’s incredible that it takes several seconds just to open a motherfucking goddamn issue.
I swear all their SQL is
select * from *;
Sometimes you'll search for a ticket and it straight up just doesn't find it. Then you search for it again and wow, now it's suddenly appeared.

My company stopped allowing OTP and required Microsoft Authenticator on personal phones. I was one of the few to refuse, eventually they gave me a Fido key. While I also use a less Google version of Android, I didn't talk about that when it was happened, just the principal that this is my phone, not the companies.
One of my previous jobs required we updated our personal phones and ticked a box in a document every month so that the company chat app was "on a secure environment/device".
I normally keep my phone up to date, but my employer shouldn't be telling me what to do with my private phone. I removed the company chat app since I didn't want to comply with them controlling my personal devices.
After that they couldn't reach me after hours. Great. After about 6 months they allowed me to use the chat app on my private phone again without insight or control over it. It may sound petty, but I think it's an important distinction.

After being forced to use Azure DevOps instead of JIRA... I wish I had JIRA back...

GitHub tickets are fine.
Jira is complicated because PMs want it to do everything. It can, but there's no good reason for it.
Yeah, jira is too customizable. I mean I wouldn’t give any of it up, but the one time someone let me have the reins, I mostly simplified. Removed workflows, removed customizations.
There needs to be better ways of defining standard projects and sticking to them. Currently everyone wants their little tweak and you can’t even pick out what’s consistent and what’s not until you run into problems

Definitely not gonna defend Microsoft's naming, let alone their versioning!

I don't care what M$ says, Azure DevOps is being left for dead. As someone who worked on the System Center space for years, I know the signs of a product they want to kill but can't. I'm convinced the only reason it is still around is because some internal teams haven't moved to GitHub yet.

What a steaming pile of goat shit that is. Glad I don't have to work with that anymore. Excuse me while I load up SAP.
