Ask HN: What do you think about GitHub's Gradual Degredation?

Basic features went from fully functional to broken. From the activity log to displaying commit information in file listings. They all worked in the past, and at some point became dependent on JavaScript with no recourse.

I had to make do with these lapses in quality, always hoping for a reversal, but GitHub poor design values persist. Come their latest manifestation: the menu you got when you clicked on the little avatar icon on the top right of the page is now replaced by a useless "Sorry, something went wrong." message.

This blow hits hard and therefore I feel the need to write about this long-standing issue. It also troubles me that few people, presumably none working for GitHub, seem to care about it. Since the issue is likely to exacerbate, I am considering further action.
