So I think the term “enshittification” has been latched onto and goatse’d by the community at large to the point people are now using it to mean “things getting worse because business.”
I am pretty sure everything is getting worse because business.
That’s exactly what enshittification means. That’s the name we’ll call this stage of capitalism.
It’s not really. Sure, the end result is “things getting worse because of business”, but enshittification specifically refers to the practice of hoarding users with a quality product, to then extract maximum profit from them while shedding any semblance of quality.
