    Reddit was already slowly dying, this will only accelerate the decline. But at least /u/spez made millions selling users’ data to AI companies, right?

    Are there any public archives? I don’t care about the site in general, but there’s plenty of older content that is still useful.

    “I know I’m not the only person who appends “reddit” to a lot of Google searches to find answers to things written by actual humans instead of robots.”

    If Jay cared about human content, they wouldn’t be using google for searches.

        Not paying monthly to browse the web. If they had a one time fee, sure.

        Really? I’ve been using DuckDuckGo as my main browser and search engine for years now. I’ve had zero problems with the search results. I haven’t used Google search directly in five years probably.

What is enshittification?

The phenomenon of online platforms gradually degrading the quality of their services, often by promoting advertisements and sponsored content, in order to increase profits. (Cory Doctorow, 2022, extracted from Wikitionary) source

The lifecycle of Big Internet

We discuss how predatory big tech platforms live and die by luring people in and then decaying for profit.

Embrace, extend and extinguish

We also discuss how naturally open technologies like the Fediverse can be susceptible to corporate takeovers, rugpulls and subsequent enshittification.
