Clean energy without fixing the system will recycle the injustices of today. Some see #solarpunk in Africa's solar boom, but I fear we’ll end up with a few monopoly corporations and #enshittification will happen.

I'm making a film that imagines a green future with no capitalism, no politicians, no central governments or police, and I need your support to make it!

TIRED: “Like Uber, but for [whatever]”

WIRED: “Like [whatever], but decentralized and supported by a thoughtfully structured nonprofit with incentive structure so as to guard against future #enshittification”

If you are running a Sunsynk inverter with their cloud crap and have now been spammed with a web dialogue you can't pass without agreeing to their marketing crap you'll probably want to know that you can annoy them immensely by complaining to policyqueries@sunsynk.com and reminding them of their own privacy policy, making a subject access request and demanding they correct the data.

or if you are smart just rip out their crap and use homeassistant or similar

This is great episode with @pluralistic and I highly recommend both listening to it and also get the book!! #Enshittification we can #Deenshittify !!

@mellifluousbox Hi Felix,
I'm hopeful about your/the board's appointment, BUT can we make something akin to a Bill of Rights for Mastodon users, so that we can create a lasting, binding, regularly reviewed structure to make sure that #enshittification doesn't gradually occur?

Having a Mastodon Bill of Rights that is durable and binding would be a GREAT selling point for Mastodon, and would help to cement the core beliefs of a healthy, durable culture for the site.

Argh... once again Audible's #Enshittification reaches its tentacles out to degrade the options for everyone else; in this case, #librofm customers not being able to use our credits on new titles until Audible gets its exclusive turn at it for 3 months. @pluralistic it's already time for an addendum to the new book!

Planning your week? Cory Doctorow’s #booktalk on ENSHITTIFICATION is your chance to learn who broke the internet & how we can fix it.

The concept became the 2023 Word of the Year & was cited as inspiration for the 2025 season of Black Mirror. Co-hosted with @AuthorsAlliance.

Sometimes I read that our phones are more powerful than the computers that took humans to the Moon in 1969.

But the Apollo didn’t have to deal with ads, subscriptions, tiers, useless AI features, region-locked Apple-only stuff... and spam calls, spam calls, spam calls.
