Welcome to Enshitification
A community for everyone who didn't realise it was spelled 'enshittification'.
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.
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.

MODERATORS
This is great if all you want is a dumb phone. Or you're perfectly ok without all the things that make your phone smart. Check the balance on your banking app? Nope. Venmo a buddy because your buddy is spotting you? Nope. Chat with your friends or family where they are, not forcing them to use another app they don't want? Nope.
I think everyone should be picky with what they are comfortable using on their smart phones.
Unless you're some kind of tin foil hat person or have a specific phone use case or a criminal or terrorist, there isn't many reasons to root your phone.
There are two kinds of people: criminals and really fucking stoopid, hypocrite, ignorant, criminals… Be the former. Only war is the class war. 🏴🏴🏴✊🏿
