Ask HN: What does good tech look like?

1 points by Gooblebrai 23 days ago · 0 comments · 1 min read


Technology seems to have acquired a broadly negative reputation: surveillance, addiction, dark patterns, enshittification, products optimized for metrics rather than human outcomes. "Tech" is now increasingly viewed as social harm.

But some tools genuinely make life simpler, more reliable, or more capable.

What does "good tech" actually look like in practice? What concrete examples, design principles, or products do you think qualify?
