I haven't used TurboTax recently, but I just received a check from my state's government saying that they've settled with Intuit over charging customers tax return services that should have been free.

This angers me greatly at how scummy TurboTax and Intuit have become over the years. For alternatives, I've been using FreeTaxUSA but I'm sure there are others that people can recommend.

Then do them on paper?? Do people really like pretending that writing things on a piece of paper or editing & printing a PDF and then mailing it in is difficult?

I fail to see why you have an issue here. It's stupid easy and the government has all the info it needs for most people. Why advocate for wasted time just because it's wasted time on an easy task. I don't care that it's easy. I care that it is wasteful.

It’s not a case of difficulty so much as it’s a case of a more rapid refund. When you mail in your return it can take up to 2 months to get your return, if you have one coming, where the online services such as TT & FreetaxUSA can get it directly in the it’s computer allowing for a more rapid refund

Yes, that is inconvenient and slow and therefore not as easy or as quick as doing them online.
