#enshitification

Not suprising in the least but disappointing to see Reddit move the wrong way. Less open, killing public API, ending RSS. #enshitification commences in a speed run. Looking forward to #Piefed and rest of #Threadiverse to work to take advantage of this moment.

#Enshitification example 3251234235 Firmware update gone wrong bricks Samsung fridges. Apparently a server side issue is at fault.

2018 : here’s a very good, thin, light and modern smartphone with an audio jack. Here’s it for 300-500€. 2022: Well, small smartphone or audiojack, you have to choose, you can’t have both. And it will costs you 800€. 2026: Small smartphone ? Nope. Audiojack ? Nope. What are you smoking ? Anyway, if you want a "good" one, you are in for more than 1000€. #enshitification

#Enshitification #Google I just got an email saying they're removing Google Assistant from mobile devices on Sept 4th and forcing their AI on to devices. Didn't they kill Assistant last year? I'm confused

do naszego systemu ticketowego dodali ai bota, który po każdym nowym komentarzu wkleja jebitne podsumowanie o czym ten komentarz był 🥴 korespondencja jest totalnie nieczytelna bo co drugi post człowieka jest przepleciony podsumowaniem ai dzięki big tech za dołożenie frustracji do kolejnego aspektu życia #ai #aisucks #enshitification

Ahora puedes utilizar el mismo inicio de sesión para largar las miserias de las empresas y pedirles trabajo. ¡Qué cómodo y conveniente! #glassdoor #indeed #enshitification

I'm also frustrated by @Codeberg@social.anoxinon.de 's availability. But I won't go back to a platform that has enshitiffied so much it' basically just a front for AI. Instead, I am paying for a codeberg active membership, and hoping enough folks will do it as well so they can have the proper resources to operate properly. If we go back to our old capitalistic masters as soon as there's a flaw in whatever new we're trying to build, we won't ever change anything. #Codeberg #github #Enshitification

I bet that in 2030 we'll be using claude or gpt only to setup local models with llamafile, optimized for specific tasks on a specific laptop or phone

The only thing Internet Explorer is good for is downloading Firefox

@mozilla@mastodon.social #llamafile is a #foss alternative to VC funded #ollama

This is your weekly reminder that Jony Ive, who helped in the conversion of Apple from a tech company into both a fashion label and a seller of future toxic e-waste, is a talentless destroyer of tech. He is the great enshittifier of physical hardware. #Apple battling #OpenAI due to Ive is a race to the bottom of who can #enshitify tech the fastest. #enshitification

#enshitification "…is not a story about bad people. It is a story about structure. #Platforms mediate two-sided markets, can reallocate value between sides at zero cost, and once both sides are locked in, the platform’s incentives shift from serving either of them to extracting from both. The diverging of platform interests from user interests is not a failure of the platform. It is the #businessmodel. “We just need a better platform” is not a #strategy."

Where should I get my #audiobooks? I'm currently on #Audible with the Premium Plus subscription (some free content as well as 24 paid books per year), and while the number of books seems to be fine, I feel the #Amazon #enshitification creeping in. So what's the alternative? I only listen to books in English, most of them American, I think. A lot of zombie, apocalypse and #scifi stuff by folks like Scott Sigler, Jonathan Maberry and Nathan Lowell, but I tend to explore a myriad of different genres. Budget is around €80/$90 a year.

Today I've been unable to play music in Google's #Chromecast because Google's #YouTube prompts me to confirm I want to watch the video I asked it to play and Google's #Android does not provide any way to enter my answer. But you shouldn't install third-party apps because they cannot match the experience of a closed ecosystem. #google #enshitification #BurnDownCapitalism #EatTheRich

In het kader van "verwarrender kunnen we het niet maken": als je in https://benu.nl rechtsboven op "Mijn BENU" drukt, wordt de browser doorgestuurd naar een website met een URL die begint met: https:⧸⧸token.biap.brocacef.nl waarop je inloggegevens moet intikken. Daar gaat mijn advies "check altijd de domeinnaam als je vertrouwelijke gegevens moet invoeren"… Die website heeft ook nog eens een DV (Domain Validated) https website-certificaat; daar kun je dus óók niet uit afleiden wie de (geverifieerde) eigenaar is van de website met die domeinnaam. #ZUCHT #EnShitification #Uitbesteden

Sorry Google. It's not me, it's you. Yeah, you've made the go-to web browser for years now, but I'll have to take my chances elsewhere. When you tried to installing a 4GB AI model on my machine without asking me, I had to finally draw the line. So tonight I'm 100% chrome free for the first time in years. Let's see what it does to my laptop battery life :) #enshitification

My Github feed... #enshitification don't bother me anymore, it just looks like an exist sign to me, it shows the way out 👉 It's good that I don't even think of the consequences anymore, I just accept that it's now @silex@fosstodon.org will move soon too, let me know if you want to contribute or just vote to prioritize =>

I am looking forward to a time when everything is on subscription. Your cutlery drawer will prevent you using a spoon if your subscription has lapsed. Your garden furniture won't let you sit on it if your subscription has lapsed. Your saucepan won't heat up on your induction hub until you renew your subscription. #Enshitification

@Gargron@mastodon.social #Enshitification, the book will be under the Christmas 🎄...and thank you wholeheartedly for #Mastodon 🙏
