For me, I would love to control the UI of the services that I use. Just 3 months ago my bank decided to roll out a new UI. I still need time finding the click path for doing things I used to be able to do quickly and predictably. I wish that I could have just kept my old UI. Similarly to backwards compatibility for code-based APIs.
Anything that nags you about the software you used last week?
Last week I had to log into some systems using the software from companies convicted of criminal offences, which include monopolism, bribery, fraud, harassment, racism, sexism, digital trespass/computer misuse, amongst other things.
It nags my conscience me a little, because my use of these systems effectively lends my support to criminals, which I do not want to do.
Unfortunately my choices are curtailed because these criminal organisations have insinuated themselves into essential private and government services, and their actions as monopolists have killed alternatives.
This seems ethically wrong. I believe it's my right not to be forced to support people who in the eyes of society have been deemed to inflict objective and real harm upon others. So, I look forward to laws that uphold that right to choose ethically.
I wonder if anyone else has ethical issues with software they need to use?
Also, just realized I better go see what personal info it's back to harvesting, resetting privacy settings seems to be a big part of each upgrade.
Anyway, I want software that has a stable, boring UI, short of some major, noncosmetic change. Changing fonts and moving buttons around is not a valid reason to waste your users time. I'm very close to dumping Microsoft, unfortunately they have no competitors.
