    I expected more from A24. But I can’t help but to feel this is more about propping up the AI bubble. Which, if it was true and not some random internet commenter’s opinion, would be worse.

    Google gives A24 $75m in server credit so that A24 can test the viability of the research before Google actually has to spend any effort on it themselves.

      I very much doubt this will happen, but it’d be so funny if A24’s report at the end lf the test was “nah it’s shit, we checked”

    A24 did such a spectacular job of totally fucking up the rerelease of Stop Making Sense, to the point that I have no expectations of decent action from them.

Welcome to Enshittification

A community for everyone who misspelt it as enshitification.

“I the onceler felt sad as I watched them all go, but business is business and business must grow, regardless of crummies in tummies you know.”

This is your space to document the decay, demise, and destruction of the tech world as we know it. Share stories, articles, and firsthand experiences that capture the ongoing decline of once-celebrated platforms, services, and companies in the late stage capitalist landscape.

From monopolistic corporate shifts to anti-user updates and the relentless pursuit of profit over quality—if it’s broken, bloated, or just plain bad, it belongs here. We’re here to spotlight the moves that make the tech world worse, one piece of enshittification at a time.

For some more positive takes
!disenshittify@lemmy.cafe !deshittification@thebrainbin.org

Guidelines
🔹 Stay on Topic: Only post content about the decline of tech products, platforms, or companies.
🔹 Quality Content: Give some context when posting links or articles to drive quality discussions.
🔹 Respectful Discussion: Critique companies, crappy tech, and capital, not community members.
🔹 Positive Monday: The first Monday of every month is reserved for positive content only that shows enshittification isn’t inevitable.

Join us to expose the changes that ruin the things we once loved and to discuss what comes next in a tech world gone wrong.
