   Thanks, American Dialect Society, for choosing "enshittification" as the 2023 Word of the Year. @pluralistic's apt term describes how online platforms decay by showing users less and less of what they came for, while keeping them trapped and unable to exit for better alternatives. https://americandialect.org/2023-word-of-the-year-is-enshittification/
