Likewise, asciiflow.com serves something that isn't a good, or even half-decent graphics package for diagramming.

Yet, I had to crank out diagrams recently, and found every single program I knew had become enshittified to the point of not being usable.

I got the job done with asciiflow box-and-arrow diagrams, pasted into a word processing document as monospaced-font paragraphs.

I like https://mermaid.live if https://excalidraw.com/ is not an option.
