Most updates are totally useless and unnecessary. They just keep programmers in work. In comparison Windows 3.1 was the size of a rowboat. Windows 11 is the size of the Seawise Giant, biggest ship ever built.
GoC updated their app byW eliminating it. They updated comments by shutting them on editorial cartoon. The WaPo updated their “print version” by taking it off computers; it’s only on apps now. Octordle updated their website by putting in a menu bar, positioned so it blocks the game making it almost impossible to play the game. Every couple of days they move the bar so I never know if it’ll work or not. Windows updated notepad to the point I had to delete it and restore the old one. It took them decades to make calc work right (until recently, 2*2 → sqrt → -2 would not equal zero). Their updates are just as likely to remove something as fix it.

Sometimes the update is worse.

Well, there are changes; but whether there are improvements is another matter.

Update not=improvement.

An update is not necessarily an improvement.

Improvements is in the eye of the beholder.
