@aral I suppose the only upside (for me) is that as these services/companies become more enshittified, the more I’m removing them from my day to day life. Amazon, Google, Microsoft all sacked so far.

@aral If I had looked up the term enshitification, I would have expected it to be a synonym for capitalism.

@aral Perhaps we should be talking more about financialism, less about “capitalism”. Details matter.The people who put up the money are rarely the same ones who run the business. Moreover, they quickly trade out their interests to the public markets and funds.The machine has no human operator anymore. Only various technicians who, however badly, work to keep the parts in order.The dehumanization of productivity is insufficiently examined.
