    What a crazy read! Terrifying but somehow also hopeful?

    @Gaywallet As usual, Cory Doctorow writes beautifully and insightfully (go read the article, it isn't just a litany of what is bad, it is about how it is bad and why it is bad). Hard to pick just one pull quote but I'll go with "the potential anti-enshittification coalition is massive".

      So, fun fact, until recently I only knew him as the guy XKCD makes fun of occasionally. I read one of his posts on something recently, though, and I was pretty damn impressed with the depth or research.

    Seems to be very similar to his The Enshittification of TikTok post, linked here on his own platform (no ads).

    I didn’t do a full comparison, though.

    Perhaps you know of examples from Smart City, such a downgrading of public services in your cities?
