    Yes, but to get new users they have to meet them where they are

    Do you want enshittification? Because that’s how you get enshittification.

    Provide a solid product, screw the customer. The customer doesn’t know what they want, and they are always wrong.

      Do you want enshittification? Because that’s what the authors of all the enshittification have said in the last decade

      Providing a solid product and trying new things (specially things that can be toggled off in the settings, although it could be easier) is not incompatible and might uncover new useful use cases. I don’t love all the recent developments but all the hate is overblown

        Look, I was just being cynical and snarky. For real, man.

        I don’t know what to do about it.

        What is your suggestion?

        I mean, are you happy with where things are headed?
