What is enshittification?
The phenomenon of online platforms gradually degrading the quality of their services, often by promoting advertisements and sponsored content, in order to increase profits. (Cory Doctorow, 2022, extracted from Wikitionary) source
The lifecycle of Big Internet
We discuss how predatory big tech platforms live and die by luring people in and then decaying for profit.
Embrace, extend and extinguish
We also discuss how naturally open technologies like the Fediverse can be susceptible to corporate takeovers, rugpulls and subsequent enshittification.

MODERATORS
There's a lot of videos where age matters. Looking for a Blender tutorial? Have fun skimming through them to find the right version.
You want to see the highlights of yesterday's soccer game? Here's 5 times these teams played each other, try to find out what's the right one.
Uploaders can add that info in Headings or,
They could also show year/version/model etc
Edit : Meant youtube could add a version feature
Of course, but that's not a solution but a workaround
so could Youtube.
