Agreed. It feels like Atlasssian never met a feature request that they didn't say "no" to.

Unfortunately, most of the tools out there don't scale well, so most teams reach the point where Jira is the only reasonable choice.

(Full disclosure, building https://clubhouse.io address this problem.)

They only say "no" to something you (think you) really need at this moment :) Say, https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRA-4446 "Sub-issues should be able to contain their own sub-issues" -- #6 on the list of top voted for.
To be fair, they did say "no" to this. (After 11 years. :-) )
Actually Stash issue's were handled badly. Some issue's were delayed for better "integration" with jira. unfortunatly these issue's were way more important.
We have been very happy with Clubhouse. Still missing some templating features we'd like to see and it could probably use something along the lines of Themes, but it has been a good fit for us.
Me too. Granted our team is tiny, but Clubhouse is quite snappy. And built on Clojure!
"Something along the line of themes" is coming soon...
Baloney.

There are at least 5,000 for JIRA alone: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRA-161?jql=project%20%3D%...

Perhaps you confused "it feels like" (implying that it feels bloated with many esoteric and/or generally useless features) with the statement "there's literally never been a feature that they've said no to" which is something else entirely and what you seem to be disproving here.
In that case, does it really feel like they've said no to any enhancement request that's come through?

From my experience, and those who have watched issues for ten-odd years, I'd say the opposite is true, but I'm not working on a competing product.
