What I absolutely fucking love about modern computer programs is that when I try to do the thing the computer program is, notionally, designed to let me do the the computer program instead does everything in its power to stop me from doing that thing.

I am trying to read a document. It is some basic text. No, I do not want an AI summary of the document, I wanted to read it. No, I do not care about how I can now sync my document to some cloud service I never wanted and that you only started offering so you can scrape every document uploaded to it so you can boil more lakes training AI models. No, I do not wish to explore the options menu. No, I do not care about this other program you wrote.

JUST LET ME READ THE FUCKING DOCUMENT JESUS FUCK.
