I think they were lamenting the fact that people don’t seem to recognize why capitalism’s inherent forces tend to cause enshittification of services. That it’s not just a bad CEO that causes this but the inevitable squeeze that will happens where user good-will is exchanged for money. This is why hopping from privately owned central service to another will not solve that problem… but decentralized services that are not owned by any single agent (and therefore can’t be bought, can’t be turned into value for investors) can resist it.
It’s good to see people here, good to see people protesting and taking control. So, I welcome you (if that amounts to anything :D) However, I wish people also take stock and ponder why social media service after another turns into crap… :)
