crufty

Generic derogatory term for something that is hacked together, badly designed, shabby or otherwise substandard. Often used in the description of software user interfaces.

The new interface for <insert least liked OS here, I'm not starting a war> is crufty, nothing's in the right place, all the icons are too big and everything is slow and clunky
