"That's not scope creep, that's scope parkour."

So long Evernote!

The ridiculous premium increase from $64 to $114/year was the last straw.

Last year’s constant instability due to epic feature creep was the first.

omg KDE @kde if it ain't broken, fix it until it is?

Feature creep @ #Logitech: The software to customize my mouse settings can now also send my current text selection to #ChatGPT to rephrase it. BUT WHYYY!?!?!?

It's only been like a whole effing month and a half since the moment I thought "let's quickly implement a streamlined function to aggregate by time" in the new version of the 'distantia' package, and the moment I got something workable barely resembling the original idea.

I've learned a lot about handling time in R in the process, but feature creep is a thing, and the package never really needed this one.

I guess I dug my own hole there!

let's keep #smartphones and #id separate. no #featureCreep in the name of "convenience", no #eIDAS

here's why:

I don't understand the obsession with having search on Mastodon. Findability is there with hashtags, although you may have to find the right ones for what you want. It's ok that you're not "up to speed" right on day 1. Joining any community takes time - time to learn the people, the norms, the baggage.

What are the use-cases?

If you are in system / software engineering, this is an enjoyable and recognisable watch. For sure if you have been in the position to negotiate features/scope:

Soon.... #worldcup #featurecreep #GodotEngine

Decided to try KDE once again. Did a fresh Arch install for good measure too. I never thought I'd say this, but there's too many options and settings. It's like the developers have lost all focus and shoved as many features as they could into it. And I'm an advanced user.

I'll never leave you again Gnome.

This is... Interesting. #tesla #bioweapon #featurecreep

Umm, yes, I'd like to propose a new verb:

to mozilla sth. (v.): stuffing your product with features that absolutely nobody needs and ripping open security holes on the way

example:

„#Firefox bug lets you hijack nearby mobile browsers via WiFi | ZDNet“
