Is Enshitification a real word?

Yes

enshittification

Enshittification is an informal word used to criticize the degradation in the quality and experience of online platforms over time, due to an increase in advertisements, costs, or features. It can also refer more generally to any state of deterioration, especially in politics or society.

Thanks to capitalism, we are facing a future where using AI will cost you (like a subscription) and avoiding AI will cost you (like ads). Both sides of the equation will be monetized and we will all pay the price.

Oh, dear god. You’re right. Ha. That’s actually a very apt comparison.

I complain about J Edgar too much and forgot Herbert Hoover even existed, as I am sure history will forget about Biden.

Dear god, Hoover was a monster and a criminal. He is known in particular for how unprincipled he was.

Using Hoover and Biden in the same breath, let alone calling a monster like Hoover “principled” is beyond the pale.

I believe you have proved my point.

It has a negative connotation only for nazis and racists. For everyone else it has a clear, well defined meaning. Anyone who uses it as pejorative is a racist, nazi propagandist.
