It’s a fun idea, thanks for letting me blow off some steam.
Here are some thoughts on the execution.
1. Optimize the core UX loop for mobile so it can be used on popular smartphones without scrolling. Maybe put the actual voting on a single page that fits entirely on the screen.
2. Allow dissenters to vote “What’s wrong with you, I actually love this tool”, which I would have clicked for Claude Code.
3. Group tools by category so I can hate on corporate productivity tools much quicker. You could even adapt categories once the user skips pairs a few times so those blessed souls who do not have to use productivity tools are not shown them to vote as often.
Yeah not surprising I.e. does all SaaS sell to all people? Nope. A question prior about which tools you use would be helpful to funnel the pairs after that.
Haha, it’s fitting that SharePoint is #1 here. If you want a glimpse into why that’s the case, look at the claims format [1], probably the most brain-destroying encoding format I've ever had to deal with.
Listing “5” for an email address, and then "4" for DNS and "6" for a gender much later in the article is perfectly emblematic of all the nonsensical decisions therein.
Unlike tyfighter I did occasionally see tools I have used... but never two at the same time which is basically the same thing.
I wonder if there is an ability to do a rolling mode? Somehow get one that you know, then skip skip skip until you see a second you know and then pick the worst. That one sticks around moving forward and repeat.
Lol... I have to admit it’s pretty engaging. Although now it feels like I’m just hating on things like ADP which literally processes my paychecks and performance reviews

I clicked "skip this pair" ~30 times or so and never saw a tool I use.
I’ve added a few ai tools. What tools do you use?
Text editors? IDEs? Compilers? Cloud providers? Operating systems? Frameworks?
I gave up clicking skip this pair faster than OP, so perhaps you have some of these.

Done! Check rolling mode
Wait people hate Xcode more than VS ?
