Lmao when you're trying to turn your company into a bloodsucking vampire but you forgot that long ago, you told your lawyer to chain the coffin in case this very thing happened.
Fuck Spez… oh wait..
Seriously, tech enshittiffication is feeling all too familiar.
Facebook (a long time ago), Twitter, Reddit, Google (they even removed the don’t be evil modo), now Unity. Apple being Apple… Arduino going closed source, Raspberry Pi becoming for profit. Samsung, at least never ever even tried to look nice.
Seems we're in a time where the hopeful are hopeless so the greedy take charge
It’s a time where the kings are pulling as hard as they can on their rope until the day it breaks and their heads start flying. The people can be stepped on but only for so long.
Let's hope it's not too late when we revolt
It will be too late.

"Hey bro, let's go check out those sirens over there. I swear, bro... just plug your ears with wax and tie me to the bow. Bro, it'll be so epic."
Sirens arrive
"Bro, why the fuck did you tie me down?? Smash this goddamn boat against the rocks!"
Perfect analogy, just wanted to say I took this as air sirens at first at it did not make sense lol

I wish we could get names of the teams that decided this was a good idea. I'd love to hear their side
