Hey @pluralistic , they're taking you literally now! #enshittification tech.lgbt/@LilahTovMoon/115653…


I am quite sure that if you haven’t donated to @bonfire ‘s campaign yet it’s just because you did not know about it yet, so here is a link: indiegogo.com/en/projects/bonf… 🙂

In case you are not convinced yet, here’s a slide for you about (and against!) #Enshittification 💩

In this moment, I think every project that fights enshittification should deserve attention and support. I myself contributed, and got me an awesome print (limited edition number 19, which as y’all know is binary for 🤟😜)


Holy shit, is #Flock speedrunning to be the shittiest company of 2025?

I hate that so many #California municipalities jumped on the chance to spend taxpayer dollars on these shitty cameras.

“After 404 Media contacted Flock for comment, the exposed panel became no longer available. Flock then declined to comment.”

Just saw @pluralistic pitching his book #Enshittification at the #MissionHills #SanDiego Library Foundation store tonight, and found him to be funny, smart, charming and a great pleasure to spend time with.


Everything has gone to...

In January 2023, @pluralistic used the term "enshittification" on his blog, pluralistic.net, to describe the deterioration process of the TikTok network.

Enshittification consists of four stages:

1. Platforms are good for users

2. Platforms abuse users to be good for business customers

3. Platforms abuse business customers to keep all the profit

4. Platforms die

's apt and dreamy call to arms:

We could be a disenshittification nation. We could seize the means of computation. We could have a new, good internet that respects our privacy and our wallets. We could make a goddamned fortune doing it.

Excellent piece in American Prospect today on #inflation by Kuttner, with not one but two references to @pluralistic and #enshittification prospect.org/2025/12/01/source…


"Whenever he (@pluralistic) talks to policymakers, the response is that if anyone does anything progressive on tech regulation, the US trade representative would kick in their teeth."

"Trump is a crisis, and crises precipitate change..." - @pluralistic

You know, I really don't care which country does this, or does it first - I just care that it happens.

Moreover, I absolutely believe it *will* happen. It will *have to* happen. The only question is if it's before or after the broligarchy destroys tech as we know it.

Will we reappropriate tech, or will we revive it after it's broken?

Well, that was quick.. #arduino bans reverse engineering its products. And seizes all your data.

Very fast #enshittification from #qualcomm there.


"The short version is that YouTube used AI to 'enhance' the videos of Rick Beato and Rhett Shull. YouTube used an AI smoothing filter that made the videos look like they were AI generated, and didn’t tell Beato, Shull, or their viewers that they were doing it. They only admitted to it after the two made videos proving it happened, later claiming it was only a 'limited test'.”
