> Do you remember what Windows and Linux and MacOS were like in 90s? What exactly is the software we are comparing?

Yes, yes I do.

Since then the computer have become several orders of magnitude more powerful. You cannot even begin to imagine how fast and powerful our machines are.

And yet nearly everything is barely capable of minimally functioning. Everything is riddled with loading screens, lost inputs, freeze frames and janky scrolling etc. etc. Even OS-level and professional software.

I now have a AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D CPU, GeForce RTX 5090 GPU, DDR5 6000MHz RAM and M.2 NVME disks. I should not even see any loading screen, or any operation taking longer than a second. And yet even Explorer manages to spend seconds before showing contents of some directories.
