With all due respect, fixing things is worth while. Complaining about things is easy.
Whatever you think about wmf priorities, engineering teams do actually fix things. So do many volunteers. Everyone is welcome to submit patches, and high quality patches from volunteers are accepted every day.
[This of course does not excuse wmf from doing controversial actions, just a please put your money where your mouth is comment if you want to call wmf engineers (who often arent even the ones making these desecions) useless]
