We're in the FIFTH year of Salesforce CDP Genie Data Cloud Data 360 and despite becoming more and more important to the platform ecosystem, particularly for Marketing and Agentforce, it still functions like ass. Every interface takes an eternity to load. Love waiting for the Data Spaces picklist to load in multiple menus - it only has one value "default". Mapping a DLO to a net new DMO? I think I clocked the list at 45 seconds to load and I don't even give a shit about the list I need to make a net new object. But the button isn't available until I wait for every object name to load. Why can't these be cached? Why does it take so long to load in the first place?

I want to write a data transform to combine some objects. Random errors crop up in the point and click interface. I can't save with errors so I have to just start over. I get my output and all of the API names are messed up on my new output DMO (c__Home_Source_c__c where the fuck are all these Cs coming from?!)

So I make a new DMO and craft my own field labels and API names to be clean. Now the DMO won't surface on the Data Transform interface. I try to change the data category because _for some inexplicable reason_ it always shows as empty and disabled in the edit view. Get a strange error that gives me no results when I search: "DMO is already assigned with RELATED category"

I give up and just let the stupid API names get autogenerated because I have a deadline to meet. I fear nobody is looking at this experience because it's so "techy". This isn't the result of vibe coding. The interface behaved like this before everyone started writing code with Claude. Nothing about this experience screams one of the largest tech companies in the U.S. Every executive should be forced to walk through these processes so they understand.
