Who would expect anything else?
#Enshittification #Google #AI
Back in the good old days, many years before #enshittification hit the fan everywhere, occasionally even #advertisements were much better:
Blackcurrant #Tango
With every company announcement event, I get even more nervous because #enshittification is a strong trend these days. 🫣
It's a really good announcement when there's actually not too much news.
Upcoming anxiety: #Google actively killing the healthy ecosystem of
#enshittification meets #Apple #AppleMaps.
Ads on Apple Maps – Apple Ads https://
Apparently it is impossible to import a #Radicale calendar into #Outlook, what a terrible piece of software... 😑

»Die Verkrempelung der Welt« ist ein Buch von @… und absolut lesenswert.
Er führt zahlreiche Beispiele für #Enshittification auf und hat einen sehr schön, unterhaltsamen Schreibstil.
The first one is always free.
The #enshittification of #ai.

Google‘s #Youtube won‘t even show me their stupid product video unless I reveal my identity now, so they can then track me across the web. The #enshittification continues.
I've been seeing everyone complaining about #GitHub lately. Well, I totally agree. I've had to start working with it again recently. Not only are there frequent outages, but the UI is slow and buggy as hell. Buggy like in "Supporting the back button? What for?"...
#enshittification
Totally normal #Google #Play app situation.
Changes in new version: "restoring backups."
Methinks "that looks like a harmless update".
Reality: AI, new terms of service, new "privacy" policy, make a backup ("in cloud" preferably, can't save locally), sign up for an account (you can skip that), database migration.
Of course, the app itself is not very different. Some random extra padding that makes it look like shit, new database format that's much slower, and lots of useless premium shit.
