For what it's worth, I think a lot of people put misplaced blame on Jira for their own broken process.

Jira is a tractor trailer. It's big, it's powerful, it's a bit slow to get moving, but (1) it can carry just about anything (2) once it gets moving, it tends to stay moving. There's a lot of value in having a "do it all" project management system.

That being said, there's also value in alternatives that are more tailored towards specific needs.

We were avoiding creating issues because of how long it would take to do with JIRA. I had to stop and wait between sentences because the JIRA edit box couldn't keep up with my typing.

Have you tried the alternatives like YouTrack?

Way faster, way better design and the searchbar was amazing.
