Wordle may or may not be proof but there are plenty of nice things on the internet. Tons of personal blogs, tutorials written by experts for fun, etc. It might be true that on average, random articles are horrible, especially on mobile where every 4/5ths of a screen a new animated ad appears (I just leave the site). But, for there's still plenty of sites made with TLC

With a web-app, you can write an extension. With native, no such luck.

Ikea is a bad example in IMO. I moved countries 3 times in the last 10 years and bought many of the same exact Ikea items all 3 times. The quality went down each time. Things that were previously metal became plastic. Things that were previously reenforced in 4 positions were now only 3. etc....
Also, several of the more sturdy things they had they no longer sell and what they have now in the same category are vastly less sturdy.
I agree though, they do still have some good, quality, sturdy kitchen tables and a few pretty good sturdy sofas.

I don't know why you got downvoted but I do know I like salt and I often run into places that don't put enough of it. Whether it's important for pasta or not I really don't know but it's easy to believe it would be better with than without. Also, adding salt after cooking doesn't taste the same as adding it during cooking (again, in general, not specifically for pasta). My go to example for that would be scrambled eggs. Salted before cooked they taste great. Salted after they taste like bland eggs with salt added on top.

Disagree. If you followed observability no text editor would do more than Notepad

You might be right but I have a friend to worked at Apple that would claim Apple could only make their phone smaller by building in the battery. He didn't seem to notice that Samsung built phones with just as many features with a replaceable battery.
