    Sometimes I have to wonder, what’s it going to take to make people leave X?

    I mean, it was a shithole even before Musk bought it, 4 years ago, and it’s gotten predictably and steadily worse ever since.

          Paypal is pretty much the ground zero of evil in the world.

        Now I have to remove LinkedIn - this a good reason! It over reduces my cyber footprint overall. I only have it bc it’s required for a places that I’ve applied about 60-70%.

          They did me the favor of removing my account when they asked for my ID “to protect my identity”.

            Sound phake! I’m over skeptical of the new real id thing overall so I won’t be bothering with it until the last moment.

      It’s a live experiment. How much a platform can enshittify before people leave? We are still going to find it out.

      Sometimes I wonder what it will take to get people using the web less.
