The comments on fediverse assume enshittification will begin.

But isnt this just bragging about having a big new client? What has this got to do with enshittification?

Basically because we as individuals can't compete with corporations, so when there are large corporate clients they will drive the price up for individuals. It's not guaranteed to happen, but these types of business to business contracts are usually not a good sign for us.
