Your periodic reminder that VC-funded CEOs are in a situation that they have bet both their kidneys on being able to deliver a 100x return to the bone-saw wielding loan sharks who funded them.
Your “community” is worthless to them unless it delivers Kidney Money.
They cannot just “decide” to not enshittify the community you mistakenly believed was yours. No appeal to justice or fairness will work, unless accompanied by a donor kidney or two.
Let's not forget that the muskrat is in a totally different situation, however. He has PLENTY o' money to pay off the loansharks. He's enshittifying the birdsite just for funsies.
I still argue that it's performance art: he's providing an object lesson to people about why you shouldn't let important things get purchased and run by billionaires and he spent $44B to show how much he meant it.
And a bunch of people *still* haven't gotten the point.
Call it whatever you like: being charitable, wishful thinking, unreasonable optimism… I just wish people would take the opportunity to learn the lesson and begin to empower themselves rather than giving into despair and cynicism.
