We reached the peak of software usability a long time ago, probably around the turn of the century. Now it's all about trendchasing, change for the sake of change, dark patterns to squeeze the $$$ out of you, etc.
I think there's still room for real improvement: once we have afforable displays that cover your entire wall, imagine what something like miro could bring you. Visual collaboration, pen drawings that turn into organizated information, architecture diagrams that can be turned into low-code models and running software, all whilst collaborating with others all over the world in front of their digital display walls.
Last 2 years, the thing i miss most about working in the office, is the ability to collaborate with co-workers in front of a huge whiteboard. The brainstorming, ideation. Miro is nice, but it deserves a huge screen, it needs more interaction with your co-workers, and it needs to help you take your drawings into real value (running software, designs that can be fed into 3d printers, cnc machines, etc).
