ok, I hate ‘enshittification’ / platform decay.

How do we stop this? Lets brainstorm ways that we can push back against this.

What are some examples of things that are NOT becoming prone to ‘enshittification’ / platform decay.

Then we can build and have platforms that stop this from happening, I would love to hear solutions.

If it is profit driven it will turn to crap no matter what.

Brainstorming: some subreddits are still going strong despite the overall (ipo/shareholder-driven) downturn. Some extremely niche hobby forums are still alive and well, eg. FountainPenNetwork. Specific software help/discussion forums are alive, eg. Autodesk. Those are a few places I can think of where it seems that where real humans congregate and have real conversations. Not sure how useful that is, but thinking out loud.
