> Making arguments that people can rebut or support would drastically alter the situation

This is why the non-specific griping gets an immediate downvote from me. There are only a few things where the crappiness is so widely agreed upon that you don’t need to explain; if you’re talking about something which millions of computers are already running, it’s quite unlikely that something is completely unusable, or that anything useful will come out of the ranting. If there are specific details, though, it’s possible to have a productive conversation and maybe lead to some open source work.
