This is a stupid thing to latch on to but why is everything an “experience” now? It’s a fucking programming dashboard, not a three-star Michelin restaurant.

It's simply the industry term to describe the design of a user interaction with a system's interface. That's like complaining DC technicians refer to "blades" when it's just computers in a rack.

You do experience it when using it. What HN does the most is complaint exactly about the experience.
