What is enshittification?
The phenomenon of online platforms gradually degrading the quality of their services, often by promoting advertisements and sponsored content, in order to increase profits. (Cory Doctorow, 2022, extracted from Wikitionary) source

We discuss how predatory big tech platforms live and die by luring people in and then decaying for profit.
Embrace, extend and extinguish
We also discuss how naturally open technologies like the Fediverse can be susceptible to corporate takeovers, rugpulls and subsequent enshittification.

No? Maoists and Marxist-Leninists (aka Stalinists) are tankies, but Marxists are not.
Why are Marxist-Leninists the same as Stalinists? I don't think Lenin would have been too excited about Stalinism
-Wikipedia. The term Marxist-Leninism was coined by Stalin to give legitimacy to his ideas.
I wasn't aware of that, thanks!
yup the irony is strong
