cilantrilloWhy do so many tech companies, like Reddit and Twitter are making their platforms worse for their users all of a sudden?
KabeHere is how platforms die: first, they are good to their users; then they abuse their users to make things better for their business customers; finally, they abuse those business customers to claw back all the value for themselves. Then, they die.
from Cory Doctorow's article on 'enshittification', which has become mandatory reading.
hawkwindI think the exception is companies “too big to die.” They serve as the archangels of tech so ALL other goals lead to being bought by FAANG or dying.
ExecApparently neither Twitter nor Reddit was too big to fail.
