Considering my experience with anything digital made by (or for) Swiss government agencies, I can absolutely imagine that it's a horror show.

For example, we had a digital vaccination certificate application (before COVID, calm down tin foil hats). This application/website apparently had issues so bad that the government had no other option than to just close it down for good from one day to another. Essentially, f..d up beyond repair.

People couldn't even get their data out it anymore. It now seems that data rescue might be possible "soon"... 2.5 years after the platform has been taken down.

Basically, everything IT our government touches is doomed ;)
