@pluralistic wahadda think about coining the term #endarkenment for what’s going on outside the tech enshittification?

Over the season I caught up with a bunch of the Canadians I grew up with. All of them used “enshittification“ to describe what was going on around them. Don’t think they had read your (great) book - they were just describing life.

I know you are just fine with that. But I think we need a bigger word to describe our anti-rational world. The Darkenment sums it up for me.

last year's feature on the general #endarkenment of our times is now in the open archives and sadly still as relevant as it was 12 months ago.

I think I have discovered why the Harappans, Angkor (&c) collapsed without leaving any archaeological/historical record.

They invented some form of social media.
