Welcome to Enshittification
A community for everyone who misspelt it as enshitification.
"I the onceler felt sad as I watched them all go, but business is business and business must grow, regardless of crummies in tummies you know."
This is your space to document the decay, demise, and destruction of the tech world as we know it. Share stories, articles, and firsthand experiences that capture the ongoing decline of once-celebrated platforms, services, and companies in the late stage capitalist landscape.
From monopolistic corporate shifts to anti-user updates and the relentless pursuit of profit over quality—if it’s broken, bloated, or just plain bad, it belongs here. We’re here to spotlight the moves that make the tech world worse, one piece of enshittification at a time.
For some more positive takes

Join us to expose the changes that ruin the things we once loved and to discuss what comes next in a tech world gone wrong.

People need jobs, every day people are forced to take shitty jobs back, but this time but this programmers get to experience what getting hired back by a business after a cultural imprint in the business mindset that all of the human programmers are "temporary" but in an indefinite sense.....
Welcome to the blue collar world fools!
That just shows that executive class aren't just too arrogant, they are also too cowardly. Reminds me of this quote from Avatar The Last Airbender:
"Shame is not the opposite of pride, but it's source. True humility is the only antidote to pride."
I have no hopes that these people would ever be capable of being humble.
To the surprise of no one else.
“Double my salary or fuck off.”
(This isn’t meant as serious advice. There are too many desperate, unemployed people out there. Still, if you were fired but are happy with your new job, consider doing it for the personal satisfaction.)
