Switching web browser was easy. I ditched facebook, messenger and twitter years ago, when those services became <a href="https://genomic.social/tags/enshittified" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>enshittified</span></a> beyond a threshold acceptable to me. <br>I left WhatsApp (last meta service) weeks ago. This was hard. I've been using Signal for years, but most of my family and friends still don't. <br>Leaving Google is a project by itself. My private and professional life got very entangled with it. But I'm nearly there! :)</p>

endolexi<p>I agree of course that it's nonsensical to assume <a href="https://masto.endolexis.com/tags/capitalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>capitalism</span></a> weren't working exactly as intended when services become <a href="https://masto.endolexis.com/tags/enshittified" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>enshittified</span></a>. But to ignore the specific phenomenon sounds to me a little like conflating an observation and the environment in which it is made.<br>So for me it makes sense to say that "<a href="https://masto.endolexis.com/tags/enshittification" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>enshittification</span></a> is what inevitably happens to any commercially driven service in a <a href="https://masto.endolexis.com/tags/capitalist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>capitalist</span></a> economy".</p>
