Is it irony to quote all the enshittification steps and then demonstrate you know nothing about enshittification by saying they’re good things?

If they were value-added features, we could opt-out and pay the same (plus inflation) without them. None of the extra shit has any value to my house, for instance.

1. We can keep our money
2. Institutional dysfunction is a weird term for global management in a format intended to be collaborative and egalitarian. It’s different from how the East India company managed their territory because it’s not autocratic, and in this it’s kinda new.

No jack? Send it back.

It’s exacerbated by “oh this library is updated for no reason than its version is newer so we need to force that bleeding edge on any ecosystem we’re in” thinking.

We’ve absolutely lost the careful, measured long-term release and maintenance cadence that we built the Internet on.

Compare Systemd.

I love the “it’s neat to car about the victims but you suck for not caring about allllll the victims you jerk” trope. This is how movements lose people.

I hear you saying the idea that Marlaina Smith and her ilk are hell-bent on destroying Alberta and Canada is not actually news, and I agree.

Wait. EAT? I heard about the rest but … say it isn’t so.

Now compare against America, which is on TV and is thus significant in this case.

Kibibytes can fuck off.

Similarly, I talk in an accent that I don’t hear when I speak. So, not only do I hate the tone of my own voice on playback, but I also have a stupid yokel accent. It’s bad all 'round! ;-)
