      Bingo. Downvotes aren’t because they don’t like the term.

      Downvotes are because they feel they need to insult people to feel better about themselves

      And another post where he goes into what enshittification means exactly.

      It’s a good word that encapsulates the exploitative goal of platform economies.

      This is enshittification: surpluses are first directed to users; then, once they’re locked in, surpluses go to suppliers; then once they’re locked in, the surplus is handed to shareholders and the platform becomes a useless pile of shit.

      In fact, enshittification is the reason for the Reddit migration to Lemmy. I wouldn’t be here otherwise, probably.

    And “stupid” is an ableist word used by lazy people who also don’t care about throwing disabled people under the bus. ¯\(ツ)

        So let me get this right, you’d like to see a guy who has a background in software and has done more advocation for better intellectual property rights, better regulation of corporations and general user roghts than eother of us will likely ever accomplish in our lifetimes.

        And you like to put this guy into a warehouse and see him not get fired?

        …Wat.

        I agree with you. If a person cannot spend 8 hours a day lifting boxes in a warehouse then they are of no value to society. Simple as that.

      Nah, look around the sub, there’s good posts. This is garbage. I don’t really care if this is someone’s unpopular opinion. In my opinion it wasn’t worth a post, so it gets a downvote. This is all subjective, I’m not going to just blindly upvote things just because it might technically fit the literal title of the sub without really being engaging or adding anything insightful. And don’t try to gatekeep the whole internet.
