Yeah, that’s something a shitty developer who is bad at debug would say.
Bugs frustrate me more because I can often guess at why they are happening and how to fix them but can’t just apply the fix myself. Even more frustrating when there’s an update and I’ll think, “oooh maybe they finally fixed that annoying bug!” and then see it again shortly after installing the update.

That’s like a big portion of bugs lmao, lots of bugs exist because the spaghettification of the code makes it too costly to fix. Do you really think devs don’t know why the bugs are there?
Yeah that’s fair, though it doesn’t help with the frustration. Especially when it’s management getting in the way of things. Like with all the enshitification, my guess is that there’s a dev or team of devs that hate themselves for going along with it.
The DMR in call of duty years ago. “Here’s a bug that breaks the game dynamics. It’s literally unplayable. Instead we added more features that make us money.”
“ugh I know exactly why this is happening” is such a frustrating feeling. Especially when it’s stuff that should’ve been found in testing, or that you know probably was found in testing, but they deprioritized the fix.
Sometimes what’s worse is when I am pretty sure something they suggest won’t fix the bug and then it does fix it. Like I experienced a race condition in my Android email app and talked to support about it. They said try clear app data / cache and see if it worked. I thought there is no way that would solve it and they’re just giving be the boilerplate support thing. It did fix it.
Now I’m even more scared at what their code is doing.
