Google, this fucking phone, the cesspool of fezbuk, the shittified streaming services I canβt manage to unsubscribe fromβ¦
Google Workspace. I have several clients who insist on using it for unknown reasons. It creates unprofessional looking work products. And in some cases, it is just plain kludgy (slicers randomly shoot themselves over the Sheet, page numbers randomly renumber when the footer is updated, etc). The part that gets me the most is that it is similar in price to other productivity suites, but often our clients opt to buy Zoom and Slack on top of that - basically doubling the price.

Just a slimy middleman taking a cut of every transaction and trapping people in debt. But a bit of a tragedy of the commons because merchants raise prices to accommodate CC fees and the rewards are hard to pass up.
All my durable medical equipment like CPAP machine, DirecTV, and Walgreens for anything.

Adobe "Creative Cloud" thanks to it's monopoly in the design industry (though I am in the process of doing my first smaller client job with Inscape atm).

Planes/Airports... I travel for work and I hate them, uncomfortable, crowded, huge waste of time and lots of problems just waiting to pop out.

Kit Kat (Nestle)
X.com
I stopped using it in February. I have a much happier life now.
Secret Server (Thycotic/Delinea). What a crock of shite that is. I was trying to replace it but people at work who have more influence than I do actually like it. I guess they've never used a decent password manager. If we ever actually get to the point where we have to pay for it maybe they'll change their mind.
A new Google Pixel phone as they have supported GrapheneOS. Super huge, ugly, everything Glass for no reason and no headphone jack...
To that, Bluetooth. I will have to use it with this phone, or suffer from iphone-like Dongles like a cringe applekid.
