State of affairs for technology seem bad? But what is being done to change it? And what could be done by you so it changes at least for yourself?
A community to talk about the reversal of enshittification, be it news, actions that could be done, etc.
And my favorite rule of the community:
If you must talk about enshittification, please include how someone could reverse it; otherwise, post it elsewhere
Not the mod or creator. I just post there. Home instance is programming.dev, see so many enshittification and LLM war posts even after unsubscribing to communities that post them a lot like !Programming. More than a little frustrated that An Enshittification Happened gets 500 upvotes and tons of engagement, but this little community telling you How To Resist Or At Least Partially Reverse An Enshittification (whether that be an overall strategy thinkpiece on what actions could happen at a macro level to help stop it, or a how-to guide for your personal device/experience) averages 20 upvotes. So I figured I’d try to do something about it and promo it instead of just being angry and doing nothing.

Made it because reversal should still be possible, and although there’s [email protected], other than its “positive monday” rule, the deshittification aspect isn’t covered by their rules/guidelines (nothing against their community, though).
Looks dormant though.
Thanks for bringing that to my attention. Just posted in both communities about what to do since both exist
people love to just complain instead of stepping up to make a positive change to the world
We can only convince so many people to ditch corporate social media. Convincing them to ditch their gmail is even harder. Convincing them that their amazon plus isn’t really worth it is a big fight that I’ve yet to win once
the sad truth is that even the people who are tech literate doesn’t want to ditch those services let alone people who doesn’t have any idea about these tech.
there is a lot of enshitification that I don’t have much control over. I mostly just don’t do the things so it does not get my support but like I still have to use grocery stores and heck some things with supply chains and quality of produce effects them all because its societal.
More like they know how to, the latter is much trickier
Just joined the community after seeing this
Should have bought it to [email protected] since that community wasnt yours but then that was locked
Thanks for the link.
Sure, sign me up.
