    I couldn’t get the command prompt up (Shift+F10 I believe) on the last laptop I bought, which I think had Windows 11 SE (don’t let the name fool you, it’s the worst one). I just installed Windows 10 instead

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

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.
