The Enshittification of Everything Explained!
Why do YouTube, streaming services, social media platforms, online stores, and even products seem to get worse after we become dependent on them?In this Egotastic FunTime podcast, JP explores “enshittification”—the term coined by author and digital-rights activist Cory Doctorow to describe the gradual decay of online platforms and services.Enshittification Book: https://amzn.to/4wNuqIqThe process typically unfolds in three stages: platforms attract users with an unusually generous deal, begin favoring advertisers and other business customers, and finally squeeze everyone to extract as much value as possible.We examine how platform decay affects the YouTube creator economy, streaming services, social media, online retail, smart appliances, subscription-based products, and the things we supposedly own. We also discuss corporate consolidation, algorithmic dependency, interoperability, right-to-repair laws, and why simply deleting one bad app will not fix the larger problem.Welcome to the Enshittocene!What website, service, app, or product has suffered the clearest case of enshittification? When did you first notice the deal changing? Tell me in the comments—and let me know which stage you think YouTube is in right now.If you enjoy independent commentary about entertainment, technology, the creator economy, science fiction, and the strange future we are building together, please like the video, subscribe, and share it with somebody who has watched their favorite service become steadily worse.SUPPORT AND FOLLOW:Patreon: https://tinyurl.com/EgoPatreonSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5GFicOch6Up1mlmzomOgirPayPal: https://paypal.me/egotasticfuntimeEgotastic FunTime: ReLoaded (YouTube): https://www.youtube.com/@EgotasticFunTimeTalking The Orville (YouTube): https://www.youtube.com/@TALKINGTHEORVILLEThe Orville Official Guide: https://amzn.to/4vp0MIATwitter: https://x.com/EgotasticFTInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/egotasticfuntime/My Microphone: https://amzn.to/4hZDELDDisclaimer: Some links in this description are affiliate links.
