    Ok, that’s not enshittification though.

    Enshittification is when a company initially provides a good service, often at competitive prices. But as their market saturates (or they just establish as a monopoly), they start turning to shittier and shittier ways to increase profit due to demand that businesses must continually grow profits, or they fail.

    “Enshittification” isn’t the same as “stuff gets shittier”.
