If Facebook and Reddit and Twitter are all going downhill, what leads people to believe that websites like Mastadon or Lemmy won’t go the same way eventually?

    Yeah not to use the same metaphor everyone seems to use but email didn’t go through “enshittification” and like fax machines didn’t, even though fax died out, because it’s a feature of the business cycle, not a feature of technological innovation.

      That’s because email and fax machines aren’t businesses either. However commercially run email providers def go through this process.
