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.
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
Before we can (and want to) get tech workers to unionize, there needs to be a shift in culture in the tech industry. Right-wing libertarian ideals are very prevalent in tech, especially in Silicon Valley. This has been the case for years and has already greatly influenced tech legislation in the United States and the world. Class solidarity is almost non-existent at a lot of big tech firms.
That being said, there are of course many tech workers who understand the importance of the class struggle and who are ready to organize. I'll add some links to the tech workers coalition and to a podcast which unveils a lot of the hidden politics of the tech industry, tech won't save us.
On another note, interoperability naturally arises from well designed and largely adopted open standards.
