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
I may have a miserable existence at times but at least I've never spent money on Reddit.
lol!
That article is the reason I deleted my Reddit account and came to Lemmy
Buh-bye, Reddit!
I'm neutral on some new subreddits being paywalled, since it's not like I'm going to ever fork out a single cent for them. But what is this about adding more ads? I swear the ads I already see in Reddit are are the shittiest, most annoying garbage ever.
I just deleted the reddit app today, apparently not a minute too early.
Great work.
What's this reddit? Sounds awful
