Finished our migration from #sonatype #nexus to #reposilite. The thing I regret the most? Not ditching this #enshitified piece of junk earlier.

More and more often simply deactivating JavaScript execution and/or refusing cookies gets you blocked by certain websites (looking at you Leroy, French hardware store). I mean, incompetence costs you customers. But you know *why* this is?
Right: Ad companies like Meta and Google and *drumroll* "AI" splotificators scraping the weg en masse.

Each time I can write this:

‘I don't support US based apps anymore or brands/companies that are active on X/twitter or Meta platforms’

it gives joy that this small action may hopefully bring down some #enshitified or #fascist run corporations

I am afraid that Elon and Zuckerberg cooked themselves in when they allied with certain interest groups and #enshitified their product in the quest for ad money. #Facebook will start limiting links too for professional accounts trying to keep people on a platform that is dying from scamming, reels and AI slop. History of business is not going to be kind to those who destroyed global agoras for ephemeral gains.

Garage doors, #enshitified with wireless. The home I bought has some 10 year old Liftmasters that work with #Ratgdo controllers. Even the fact that those workarounds are required for the utterly horrible MyQ devices was enough to swear me off of intentionally buying #Chamberlain products, but their need to continually make worse products takes it further. https://www.theverge.com/tech/839294/chamberlain-myq-garage-door-opener-update-blocks-aftermarket-controllers #smarthome

@ben just installed it in a server, and while it looks really promissing, I noticed an add promising an Amazon voucher for those willing to go pro.

Besides finding it so alien to (self-hosted) #FLOSS ethos, that mad me wonder if this is already #enshitified since inception.

Just got some "feedback survey" from #Strava
All about money (and how much they could charge and get away with it). No free form (I might have told them how I feel about their recent moves)

The futur is #Enshitified

@Gammitin

Great. MS has been a productivity suck with each successive “upgrade” ever since.

So finally last week i acheived a significant productivity boost, at least temporarily. I cut the internet on my MS365 exchange and for a short time everything works great and lightning fast. As soon as the cloud is back everything slows back down and Excel starts crashing, and my MS IT guys can’t fix it.

So #enshitified , the only way to solve this is move to #Linux and open source sw.

Besides high premiums , I had to think back & remember my last nasty insurance company events.
Hit by a car in a Rome crosswalk. ( life changer ) Dollars offered = a joke. :(
Home owners insurance, ( Farmers / USA ) cancelled due to forest fire risk.

Yup, much of big biz dealings are so #enshitified today & then there's the future with them. :( #pnw

komoot, a bike routing service, as been #enshitified. The executive staff sold it for ton of money. Most of the team has been fired. Most of the value created by the team and users is being capitalized to benefit a few.
The skilled(now fired) team is creating wanderer.to. They are trained and experienced.
They dont seem to be an #activePub site yet but lets support them.

Getting off #microsoft and #bigtech #OS #cloud is the challenge of our times.

? What are the best recommendations for #linux that still enable business functionality with #office productivity, and specifically pdf annotation and signing and advanced spreadsheet. Paid versions welcome, as long they are not #enshitified

Can we just sit here and appreciate #Lemmy user @Wispy2891 for sharing their latest find, like a cat dragging in a dead bird - or; a dead mouse?

If mouse #drivers become as #enshitified as #printer drivers (or even more so), I see that as an absolute win!

#Electron wrapper AND #AI? #Logitech sure wants you to to choke on that ball-gag.

"Excuse me sir, would you like some #Linux in these trying times?"

#EMTD is my long-time mantra.
Everything Microsoft Touches Dies.
Github, LinkedIn, Skype, Visio, it all gets killed and subsumed by a Teams feature nobody asked for, on an #Enshitified OS "as a service" with non-optional AI-BOT overseers and screen captures...
Probably DOS and PC-BASIC are the only good ever done by MS, and still in wide use in 2025. And they trained lots of people who eventually got better jobs.

Why install a ton of crap that potentially modifies OS files when you can just install #Linux? #Microsoft has thoroughly #enshitified Windows. I don't know how anyone can tolerate it anymore.

Uuuh. There are so many #calendar 'wares and they are so #enshitified that the don't talk with each other so you end up with multiple calendars all over the place that you can't import or export. All of this a choice by the software companies. fcuk them. geesh. 😡

Because Outsourcing™ and Not Giving A Fuck About People Paid SMIC® they couldn’t even tell me which app to use and recommended some shady ass shit that is the first suggestion on Google Play.

Overdrive finally phased out the legacy overdrive app. This means no more audiobooks on my watch. So much sadness.

@JesseSkinner weren't those called #googlers before #search became #enshitified ??

Seen elsewhere on Mastodon (paraphrasing):

"... #Ubuntu is an #enshitified fork of #Debian ... "

I took a second read.

I LOL'ed.

I moved along without comment.

Now I'm starting to consider it being true.
