@kairyssdal this is the first good word I have seen for EVERY business that keeps having less revenue yet higher profits. Car makers sell less units but make more money. Airlines seem to do the same with flights vs profits. Thus world sucks

@kairyssdal I don't know about gentrifying, but there's definitely a lot of Shrinkflation (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shrinkflation) going on.(Netflix cutting off account sharing, Disney+ adding ads unless you pay an additional premium, etc, etc)

@kairyssdal As someone who has lost many WD40 straws or had them fly out while using, the many years old attaching it with a hinge has been a great improvement. Baffled why that is an example of a new trend.

@kairyssdal One's progress in capitalism is to seek the most profit per item sold. That comes from high-end products, new products, and patented products. If your product isn't patented and is not evolving, you're focusing on how to make your product more exclusive, higher quality, or something else that translates to higher value for customers.
