   I re-read Cory Doctorow's excellent blog about "enshittification" today, and I realised that I've been seeing this process everywhere recently. Pretty much the entire internet is somewhere on the enshittification path now, apart from here on the Fedi

   Once you get used to not seeing ads any more they stand out so much when you go somewhere else, and I absolutely hate them

   A better way is possible, this place proves it

     I'm just tired of every second of my online existence being used by some prick to try and make money

     I guess the next thing I need to do is to try and de-Google my smartphone

     The mobile internet is absolutely terrible now, every single site is just the article you want to read cut up into tiny little boxes in-between all the giant fucking ads

     YouTube has 2 unskippable ads every few minutes

     I'm using everything else less and less, apart from here, it's like an oasis
