I noticed this week that reading Reddit on mobile has added a useless "show more comments" button when reading it past the first 10 comments or so, making it worse to read and use the site. I wouldn't need to read Reddit if my favorite SA threads updated more often, I very much appreciate the SA app not doing this.

didnt they make the reddit mobile web experience bad on purpose so people would have to get their app (which again provides way easier access to track you and collect data)

I can't understand how anyone reads Reddit. Like getting spot point information sure, but trying to follow a narrative is just jarring. Getting old, Jake.

IME it's more like: Website: We changed something, gently caress you. Also, we've assigned one person to write one article responding to your feedback, and we're not changing anything based on your feedback, gently caress you. Users: Ok, we'll keep using your website, because a) you're a monopoly or b) we're terrified of the alternative, which is being bored.

In real world enshitification, went to Boots Pharmacy earlier in the week and they've now got rid of all the staffed tills and now just have half a dozen self-checkouts, of which, only one takes cash. Because of this, there's no one to deactivate the security stickers they're still putting on all the cosmetics, something I found out when the security guard made me come back into the shop and asked "what I'd taken" and made me show him inside my bag and the receipts for the makeup I'd just bought.

I'm so glad the people responsible for that decision thought through the consequences of all their actions. Isn't it so much more efficient and streamlined now??

I can't wait till there's a book out about the insane "pivot to video" craze. Just a completely unhinged and counterintuitive case of 21st century capitalism chasing its own tail in the pursuit of a mirage and in the process trampling on people's lives, livelihoods, and creative output

Bought some Dawn dish soap. At home noticed it said, "New Fresh Scent!" 1. Why does dish soap need a loving new scent? 2, Why is the new scent just the smell of Mr. Bubbles? I am supposed to bathe with my dirty dishes now?

Wearing black T-shirts has gotten shittier. Well, it's not the shirt's fault I guess, but my chest hair is turning white now and several times a day I'll spot some lint or a speck of dust on my shirt out of my peripheral vision but it's just a white hair poking through my shirt and it really stands out against the black.

The screen on my Fitbit Inspire 2 is too dim to read if it's a sunny day and also the touch controls cannot be operated if you're sweaty. Fitbit were circling the drain before getting gobbled up by Google.

Security staff can get in deep poo poo for stopping/accusing someone who hasn't actually stolen anything because the company can get sued. Some states have laws that let them check your bags at the exits though, like NY but not CA.

Yep I've never cooperated a single time and have actually walked home with anti theft tags attached to my clothes. Even though they supposedly have anti tampering dye packets visible through little windows I've busted every singe one off with a hammer and never had it damage the clothes in any way. Imagine enshittifying your business with anti theft garbage and your vendor is already so lovely that half of it doesn't even work.

It's not even the tags, the alarms going off don't even make other employees look up from what they're doing because it's more pointless background noise like car alarms. They just look at me and assume I'm shoplifting.

The Lowe’s and Home Depot near me also removed staffed registers and turned everything into self-checkout. Now the two or three former cashiers just stand around waiting for some old to gently caress up scanning something so they can feel human for a fleeting moment. It sucks, too because Lowe’s has such a sweet and lively animated cashier that has since resigned her spirited character because she doesn’t have a register anymore  I asked why they got rid of the registers and she pointed out there are still two registers left. The two remaining registers look like they’re permanently closed and blocked off out of sight.I think there’s still staffed registers in the garden area and the lumber/commercial exit, and I dread when those convert to self-checkout.

I haven’t had anyone ask to see a receipt in years but usually when they ask for a receipt I would say it’s in one of the bags, which it would be as I would just randomly shove it in one. Sometimes they would find it but often they would peek into a couple and not seeing it, tell me I was good to go. I’m not doing their job for them that’s for drat sure!
