depends on the context:
“exploitation”
“make it shitty”
ruined
“fucked it up”
if it was used way less, in non-pseudo-intellectual contexts, i wouldn’t care…
there is a term for companies buying companies and lowering the quality of the product while capitalizing on the brand reputation… i forget it though…

i mean, i barely care but people keep commenting on this so i feel like replying.

parentification is another one like that. just verbifying the noun and sticking “ification” on the end to have more syllables.

you could just write out, “children being forced into parenting roles” or something…
In large families, the eldest child has traditionally taken on more parent-like responsibilities… it’s not new and if it really needs it’s own word, it deserves a more thought out word structure than just:
“+ification and now let’s try to spread the word and get people to take me seriously!”

yep. it’s like pseudo-intellectuals got too lazy to learn big words and use them incorrectly, so they just added syllables to “shitty”


“i feel personally injured by someone else not liking something that i like, so i will harass and berate them for saying so”


i know that, im not a child.
i’m talking about a particularly stupid word, not the evolution of language.
also, i don’t believe enshittjfication will stand the test of time, you jive turkey.



lol, no rules… it’s just a stupid word that sounds stupid and makes anyone who uses it look stupid…
Shakespeare invented tons of words, and they were all great, inventing new words is great. enshittification, in particular, is just lazy and dumb
p.s. love it when people do dumb shit and then defend the general category of what they’re doing as if that was the problem


i didn’t like that either… but it was quick and free…
had to take a shower afterwards though…


not really their blessing, but yeah you have to create a developer account, agree to be part of a human centipede, and then you’re in…

there’s even an alternative side loading store call side quest that streamlines it and has a ton of stuff to download…


“enshittification” is an enshittification of the english language


i felt the same way but i was gifted one recently… it’s still pretty awesome, and it runs android so you can put it in developer mode and sideload whatever you want…

i expected it to be locked down like apple, but no it’s pretty sick.

see also: original NES Legend of Zelda ported to oculus…



gamers aren’t usually a prime target, except for cryptominers…

an anticheat based cryptominer worm would be pretty terrible, now that i think about it…


Dorsey doesn’t own bluesky, it’s a public interest company and it runs on the AT protocol, which is defederated and open source… like lemmy or mastodon


well, i guess Unity apologized and the CEO quit…
but i do hope some of the more truly open source game engines replace it…




i’ve seen some people online saying Nintendo is very selective, and opaque about choosing who is allowed to buy their $450 devkit…
but still, godot is pretty cool
