Tell me about the apps you use on a regular basis, but you find lacking in some way or don't enjoy using. And where you haven't been able to find better alternatives. 😪

Learning languages on a budget is hard, but Duolingo seems to lack the artificial learning component that would allow for a more integrated facilitation.

I often have to edit or create vector graphics in Adobe Illustrator but don't enjoy using it. It's more than powerful enough, but it's a bit slow, it doesn't respect much of the macOS UI stuff (fullscreen, versioning, iCloud etc.), slow start and that it installs a lot of other apps, Creative Cloud stuff etc. And have it's own software update system. In fact I don't like the entire Creative Cloud solution, but for the other apps I use Sketch + Pixelmator.

Great tool except it's pages are like Microsoft word, which I hate. I'd prefer something  like with markdown support or simple text pages. The new redesigned version makes it even harder to navigate between notebooks.
