    Many things are really just getting worse, though.

    I’m in my 20s, I love new stuff, and am excited for new technologies…

    But the stuff that existed for the last 5-10 years? Yeah, they’re just getting objectively worse. From social media, to Google, to basically almost anything that private companies control.

    Not everything is getting worse, but enough are that it may be difficult to discern at times.

      Enshittification is real and driven by profits. We’re out of the “wild west” phase of the internet, companies are now trying to capitalize every last square inch of it.
