Games, though it’s more of a game company issue. I like Apex Legends.
Microsoft Office stuff. Every now and then I need to make a presentation, and LibreOffice Impress to Microsoft PowerPoint isn’t that good. I resort to Google Slides for now.
Cursor trails. I tried making it myself until I stumbled on the concept of hardware cursor. I still want to do it, but man, putting an image where your pointer is at is harder than I thought. So much more if you’re on Wayland apparently.
(Lack of) general ecosystem fragmentation. I still don’t understand why I can’t paste image that is clearly present in both xclip and wl-paste over Remmina. It does work if I open LibreOffice Draw, paste it there, then copy it back, and paste it in Remmina. Emacs on Xorg is blurry and requires xwayland-satellite but smooth, and Emacs GTK is sharp but stuttery.

It may not be your thing, but personally I’ve had a lot of success with RevealJS. You just write HTML (or even Markdown) and it automatically builds your slides for you such that they run on any browser. You can make it as complicated or as simple as you like (I’ve done some wild stuff with CSS) and everything can be versioned in git and published to anywhere that supports static files.

Here’s a reasonably professional-looking presentation I occasionally give about Kubernetes if you’re interested.
