WoTC, Reddit, Twitter, now unity. All made changes that their user base said they wouldn’t like, made the changes anyway, then lost a bunch of users. There must be some new business Guru telling everybody to piss off their customers

Unfortunately, they all seem to be working from the techno-feudalism playbook. It started when tech companies realized they could make more by making us rent software instead of selling it to us, and it’s spread.

Techno-feudalism sounds cooler than enshitification and way cooler than what it is.

Enshitification is the journey, techno-feudalism is the destination.

Can't wait for some bootlicker to name himself "techno-feudalist knight" in linkedin.
