From quickbooks to TurboTax, Intuit software has been some of the most god awful both to use and to develop against in my experience.

Argocd is pretty nice

My team’s product is mainly built on Argo Workflows, and while the idea of the tool is great, we have learned to massively distrust it. It doesn’t always do what you tell it to, or, worse, it tells you it’ll do something and then does something else.

Can you elaborate? Just started building out a new platform centered on it

Wait, argocd is owned by intuit? It's under the CNCF, is it not?

but intuit started it (I think, they bought the company behind Argo overall, but Argo CD came out after the acquisition). Being a place for companies to host projects they started but want to share is kinda CNCFs thing after all.

ArgoCD is pretty nice when you use the CLI tools. Try opening the web interface when your k8s setup has, say, 300 nodes, even on a MBP with M2 and 32 GB.

Similarly, Intuit Mint has gotten worse and slower over time as well. I used to use it to track all my spending (including manual entry for cash transactions and much manual categorization of all transactions), but I gave up a few years back because it was all taking so much time and was so slow. Now I just use it to see all my account balances in one place, but otherwise don't interact with transactions much at all.

Back before Mint allowed manual transaction entry (!), I was using it in spite of that. Until the day I logged in and suddenly three months of transactions had disappeared. They didn’t care. I’ve been trying to run away from Intuit ever since. But I’ve been unable to get rid of Quickbook, and now they bought Mailchimp, so…

Ugh.

The advertisements that are constantly trying to push you towards their payment processing and payroll services are also really terrible. There's no way to permanently turn them off.
