Since software is less constrained by physical resources and has low perceived friction for change, it's easy to adopt a development strategy based on the common ideas that "more is better" and that continuous change is inherently good.

But things don't have to be this way. Buttons moving around after every update isn't inevitable. AI-assistants in text editors aren't inevitable either. I use and love xfce, for example
