In general, app feature creep is becoming increasingly tiresome. It’s sometimes ok for software to be “done”, with any further engineering instead going towards making the product ever-more rock solid. Nobody seems to realize this though.

It's because these smaller products don't make money and will eventually die unless they figure something out.

I don't buy anything from Telegram. I don't see any ads. Yet I use its API and chat for a price of $0. Something has to give.

WinZip is always the first thing I think of in this context.
