❓️Have you noticed that digital products and services are getting worse? So have we!

➡️We have published a report about enshittification, on how and why digital products and services keep getting worse - and how we can turn the trend (hint: open tech, enforcement, public policy++)

Obviously @pluralistic is a big inspiration and help in this work.

More than 80 groups in Europe and the US has joined in a call to action.

It would be funny if it wasn't absolutely true for anything and everything

This makes me so proud to be Norwegian! (Which hasn’t been easy lately 😅)

Why is that? Other than not winning any curling medals 😁

I am guessing it has to do with the royal family. One of the kids assaulted and raped girls if I recall correctly and the princess has ties to Epstein

Avicenna@programming.dev · 5 pts · 203d

well I don't think there is a country in the world that isn't tied to Epstein in someway. Maybe Chad? So it's a world-wide shame really.

Solumbran@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 200d

I mean, if you have a royal family, you're asking for this shit

.ml is hard at it

timestatic@feddit.org · 3 pts · 200d

Wasn't .ml shitty from the beginning on tho?

That's why FOSS is like the only real way to avoid enshittification. There is less of a profit incentive. And if the original team or project sells out forks are always an option. Sadly even with traditional hardware item or household machines things are created in a way were they break after a few years once they're out of warranty so you have replacement. On that note there's a stream of a light bulb that's more than a hundred years old and still continuously running

Something about the way that garage is organized is so nice

I was hoping for it to end with "go opensource". But well, that would be asking for too much.
