People use something out of value and/or convenience. It taking over is just the effect of that. It’s capitalism not some underlying motive from the corporation. Of course a business wants their product to succeed.

It doesn’t make a difference. They’ll enshitify that service to hell whether you subscribe or you don’t.

Amazing how I’ve been hearing the same thing since the service released 8 years ago. Will it eventually get shitty? Probably. But in the meantime it’s a phenomenal value.

Step 1: get lots of subscribers Step 2: enshitify
It took them 8 years of trying to get to step 1.
