who could have seen this coming? oh right me
This is literally capitalism, if you do something people don’t like they are free to choose a product where they get what they want
In a democracy outside of voting money is your biggest weapon to change
Nice! I’ll just stop buying this enshittified product/service and switch to—
…oh, wait. They’re all enshittified.
your first statement still applied… stop buying.
That’s great in theory, but there are tons of essentials that people have to buy to remain employed and/or alive.
trust me, people are not pissed enough. noone cares about these topics around me.
I just started my physical media collection but it’ll take a while
Started this year with CDs, games, vinyl, books and DVDs. Buying second-hand is great too; sure, streaming looks “cheaper” at first glance but I can do with my property what I want and don’t lose it if I can’t afford a subscription, the service goes down or they lose licenses. It’s preservation, too, and if need be can be lent out to others.
Plus, I’m just discovering the joys of making my own mixtapes and burning CDs. Spotify playlist are… good, of course, but it feels like an actual thing now.
Sealed media is like the new collectible. Prices are crazy.
