Half decade? Its been getting worse for as long as I’ve been conscious.

The tipping point from steady improvement to steady enshittification is just post the 2008 recession. As soon as the financial incentives were put in for growth (2009+) the trend shifted hard to value extraction from a captive audience.

Eh. I understand the vibe, but so many millions of things have gotten so, so much better in my lifetime.

We could spend all day trying to list them, if we tried.

how old are you? smartphones are strictly better than no smartphones or no mobile phones. internet is better than no internet. etc.
