It's wild to claim that the industry is stagnating. By any objective measure the industry is larger, more influential, and more innovative than ever before. Perhaps the problems that people are complaining about here just don't matter very much?
More innovative? Is that why none of my stuff works anymore and is crammed full of crapware I don't want that spies on me?
Oh, you meant innovative for the shareholders. Got it.
I don't know, maybe you're buying junk? I don't have that problem.
When was the last time you had to look for a job?
2024
I take it you have a good reputation and a network then. It is getting increasingly difficult to get hired lately, even as a senior. At least in the EU.

What objective measures would you use?
Pick any measure you like: total employment, revenue, patents, new venture formation, products shipped, etc. There are fluctuations from year to year due to the business cycle but overall the trend is up.
