The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was JIRA™
To be fair, Bugzilla was *way* worse.
Seriously though, how is it that in 2024 we have LLMs and iPhones but the state-of-the-art in defect tracking hasn’t evolved* 2002?
*TBQH it is gotten worse.
@igb We didn't get a chance to really make extended use of it before we were top-down told we were to start using JIRA, but that limited experience with Redmine (a decade ago) left a positive impression on me.
@igb nobody ever got fired for buying Atlassian

@igb But it had a gigantic image of a bug (when I used it circa 2001) on the front page. How was that not better?

In seriousness, we setup bugzilla on a spare desktop that I slapped some random Linux distro on because the business folk creating bug tickets with context, couldn't figure out ClearQuest (this was at a hedge fund in Chicago).

The head of Capital Structures was a little horrified by her first page load of bugzilla though! :) I swapped it for a photo of flowers.

@SusanPotter @igb I loved using Bugzilla at small companies, and mentioned it fondly the other day. 🪲
@igb ServiceNow would like a word.

@petrillic @igb

*nods in strong agreement*

I feel this statement from head to toe. Very happy to report I no longer work at companies that force me to use ServiceNow.

@SusanPotter @petrillic did you have to use GUS while at SFDC? That was worse than both Bugzilla *and* JIRA IMO.
@igb @petrillic You are right, that was awful. I didn't have to use GUS day-to-day but I did use it now and then. :)
@igb did you use fogbugz?
@eoin @seb_m I did!!!
@igb @eoin @seb_m before I'd ever used a ticketing system, I wanted to try fogbugz, but now I'm more in a "I'm good" sort of place
