You might be familiar with the German verb 'verschlimmbessern' which basically means to make something worse in a possibly honest but failed attempt to improve it.

Today, however, I learn an even better word via npub1e39esgp86n3rjz3t5dpeny9rxqehafk3t8nu8x4wmdr3rq7f2gmsr26ssn (npub1e39…6ssn): 'verbösert', which I interpret as something which has become so bad that it's nasty.
