Why should quality be a tier?

Because it costs more to stream 4k content than lower quality content?

Not agreeing with it, but the justification is easy to make.

It costs inconsequentially more to host large files, sure, but the cost is usually on the consumer vis-à-vis their ISP to stream larger files.

You are wording this like you are disagreeing, while still agreeing with what I said.

People still on Reddit want someone to take their complaints seriously? Empirically speaking, they will accept this.

Nah, it's more than the communities on places like Reddit and lemmy/kbin are so small and unimportant relative to the overall consumer market that you can pretty much ignore them completely.

I wouldn't say it sucks, just that it's a more complex, lower-level API layer than DX11 and earlier. Which is good in that it allows for more control over game performance, but the big downside is that it's more difficult and easier to screw up.

It's more complicated than just a spreadsheet but not as complicated as regular programming. You will want to learn general accounting practices like double entry bookkeeping to really understand how to use it though.

Problem is when you procrastinate because manually importing transactions and correcting them is just annoying enough to make it a hassle. Then the transaction batch gets too large and you can't remember details anymore so you give up and don't track your budget at all.

That's been my experience in the past at least.
