Atlassian get away with their awful software because there is no decent competition.
Rather than moonshots from Google, or free internet from Facebook, or even buying a football team; somebody putting their hand in their pocket and funding a decent, modern Agile software suite that is GPL would make the world a far better place than it is now.
Nobody I know likes Jira. The rest of the Atlassian suite is a dumpster fire. Jira itself is hated by everybody, but we learn to tolerate it.

There was/is competition for nearly every atlassian product, they were all worse, at least at the time atlassian surpassed them. Having used many of them, I love jira.

What feature do you want? There are a lot of open source alternatives.
