its not just platform decay

its about how businesses like Netflix and Uber use a load of venture capital to undermine regular businesses, gain monopolistic control over a market, and then use it to progressively worsen the experience for profit

you have nowhere else to go, no other platform to flee to, so you are stuck on said platform eating shit

@stefan @pluralistic eeesh, "Platform Decay" is like highbrow bobo greenwashing of a normal term, #enshittification that is

@stefan this is gold and i love that i know exactly why you're posting this, but it's absolutely *killing* me that you have him saying "but you've heard of it." instead of "but you HAVE heard of it." 😭

@stefan @pluralistic touché 🤣

This term of art is in the dictionary now. That's good #Marketing. The term didn't even exist for a year before adoption!
