Apple’s declining software quality

Improvements of a new OS are happily received. However, we're talking about the reverse, deterioration of mature products.

What mature products deteriorated (apart from iTunes) and in what concrete ways?

Mail is much better than it was even a year ago, XCode too, the OS is stable...

And FCPX didn't deteriorate over 7 -- it was a written-from-scratch reboot of the platform that just happened to cut some features people used (most got back with a vengeance).

There a number of examples in the surrounding threads. I find most software getting worse these days on all platforms. See CADT: https://www.jwz.org/doc/cadt.html

And most of that is simply looking at the past with rose tinted glasses.
