I checked search preview and got 'Jira sucks' ahead of 'Jira success stories'. So yeah I'd say it is a meme now. I don't know if it really sucks that much. I do think it suffers from that crm configurables disease. I can't believe how much time people/companies invest in this stuff, almost certainly people-lint. Often the case is where it is adopted along with Agile as a new shiny methodology with no in-house understanding of either. In one case I've seen is my team had created a shed load of data migration issues as tasks and the business were only communicating issues to the vendor. It was a mess but it wasn't Jira's fault.
