I don’t see any evidence reffing is getting worse. The only thing that has changed is we have better views and replays than fans used to have available to them, and far more platforms and coverage to complain about bad calls.
Maybe someday we’ll have the technology to do away with refs altogether. Until then, you just have to accept that human judgement and error are part of the game.

NHL reffing is getting worse. Nobody knows what a penalty is and the league doesn't use technology nearly as much as other leagues do. We mock the NBA but they can review to see whether fouls are flagrant or not, or who touched the ball last going out of bounds. The NHL refs till huddle, what did you see, did he shoot it over the glass!?
