"easy to use" is a compliment to software but an insult to humans.

Because for humans it's "easygoing" 😁

@m0xee A lot of compliments centre around a low resistance to being exploited as a resource.

@m0xee Fewer compliments seem to centre around the idea of integrity and self-sufficiency.

@thor Probably, but that's not what I'm talking about. The closest I can come up with for being easy to use as software, for a person would be easygoing. And it's not a bad thing to say.
For people being used has connotations of being abused or exploited, for software the equivalent would be having security vulnerabilities — not a good trait either.Being easygoing does not imply being used for wrong reasons — just not having a shitty attitude🤷
The language is different, but same principles apply
