Or I can (and do) use something good. That doesn't change the fact atlasian no longer support on prem jira.

They just started updating the UI and I am pissed off.

I don’t want them to change UI. I have plenty of work to do and have plenty of other tools that I use daily.

I have my workflows, I am swamped with work and now I have to change my workflows because someone changed options in UI where ones that O used are not there anymore.

I think there's ways to have a solid app by giving ai precise instruction about the architecture it has to follow. Especially by configuring read-only agent for security and quality and builder agents for everything else. It isn't perfect and I wouldn't do critical apps for a company with it but it's solid enough to replace a SaaS tool in my opinion. I think the real subject is wether this vibe-coder knows he'll have to maintain his app...

I'd pay embarrassing amounts of money for applications which do not get biweekly UI overhauls.

I'm still using the 2024 version of JetBrains IDEs because the UI hadn't changed in over ten years. I quit paying JetBrains when they ripped out the perfectly functional UI and replaced it with a VSCode reskin.

Please, for the love of god, give me software with a consistent UI.

The argument I'd make isn't about UI or features, it's about who owns security afterwards. The vendor has people whose whole job is patching things like this Ruby regex issue. The internal vibe-coded Jira usually has nobody, and the bugs that bite are boring ones, like a project page that loads for anyone who guesses the ID.

If they go ahead anyway, the ask is just that someone actually owns it after launch, not only builds it.

Atlassian is a US-parented company and this means that CLOUD act can affect it. Even this only can make it unsuitable. Then there are questions to data-in-transit. Also nothing is legally tested. Vibe-coding an alternative is much safer if you have sensitive customer data (even simple support tickets).

The location of the servers matters only if you're trying to prevent physical access, for anything else it's completely irrelevant

This person is just posting absolutely baseless claims, as if Atlassian, a company that basically exists purely on the back of B2B SaaS sales, has not considered EU data residency requirements in their core product offering: https://www.atlassian.com/software/data-residency

In short gdpr compliant means you can configure it but it must not be compliant by default and also there is no guarantee.

They are constantly changing their software and settings. More than once they believed that something is legal but can be risky for the atlassian customer.

For example training AI on metadata which they believe are anonymized but are maybe not enough changed.

Training data or metadata permisson can not be configured on all subscriptions. But as a data processor they must follow the contract otherwise they become data controller.

Also there are risks associated with privacy data framework, cloud act etc. to be non compliant just by data transfers to other countries.
