Now reframed the question. Vine isn't an example.

Taste is not subjective. The critics (cc Metacritic, >>> Rotten Tomatoes) are usually right about TV/film.
Decent Netflix TV: Maid, Unbelievable, Ozark, Narcos, Bloodline, Mindhunter, Black Mirror, Sweet Tooth.
They average like one decent TV show every 18 months. It's an absolute disaster.

It's the same reason dang needs to manually tell people about 'more' in long threads, or repost previous discussion of the same topic. That was the initial design and no one wants to make new changes because of an absurd idealization of that design.
No one wants to rethink old decisions made a long time ago and genuinely wonder if things need to change. Hence people come up with bullshit defences.
With persistence comes luck. Not particularly a fan of balajis but I like the way he once put it: "Hardwork is flipping a coin a hundred times. Luck is having it come up heads".
Chess is a boring game about memorizing patterns.

Something in my notes I wrote about note-taking and its apps months ago:
"Google Keep is the best note-taking mobile app I've ever used. Interesting thing is, I didn't realize how good it was until I tried to switch to a better app due to Keep's lack of an obvious export feature. (You can export your Keep notes via Google Takeout.)
What makes Google Keep so special?
— Write icon opens to the body content, not the title. Several other apps open to the title and expect you fill that first. Horrible UX.
— content body begins several pixels from the top. Beginning writing right at the top makes the content feel too far. Cc: Writer Plus, which has a 4.6 rating from 46k reviews.
— focus when scrolling through app includes content body, not titles only. The boxes show parts of the content when you look through the app. Again Cc: Writer Plus and its ilk.
— 'search' searches all of content body + title + links.
— instant cloud sync.
— lightweightness.
— tagging > notebooks/folders. Easier and faster tagging a note than moving it around.
— urls are active links.
— view box is relative to content size.
What It Lacks — Markdown, or something similar
— Import/export
— revision control
— hierarchical structuring
— sharing notes with non-keep users
— linking to other notes within the app
A single feature could solve all last three features it lacks: links. You could copy the link to a note and share with non-Keep users or post it in some other note to refer to that note. (Keep already shows titles and images associated with linked web URLs)."*How Apple Might Die
Title seems to have been auto-editorialized.
edit: fixed. Had no idea you could edit HN posts on the web. I've always used a third-party mobile client.
