Why does it feel like we're at a point where every social media + other digital media are making shitty decisions and falling apart? - eviltoast

I mean there’s Reddit ofc, as well as Twitter in its entirety, Discord is implementing some dumb updates, there are issues with Tumblr as well as everything to do with Meta, and I’m sure there are plenty more (and I haven’t even touched other digital media, for example the Sims). Why is it all happening in the span of about a couple months?

      Yeah… I mean, we on one hand, we now grow plenty of food to feed almost 8 billion people, cured polio, greatly extended lifespan all over the globe… But on the other hand (waves hand at everything).

      Eternal growth on a finite planet ain’t possible, but capitalism demands it. ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯
