My take is that the fediverse is nice because it’s still in its pre-enshittification phase. Give it time.

Hopefully its design makes it resistant to enshittification.

Depends… if enshittification just means corporate control and advertising, I have high hopes for the design. If enshittification also includes things like personal insults, echo chambers and gatekeeping, those ships have already sailed as expected.

That is what enshittification means. It is specifically a corporation making it’s product shittier because they’ve cornered the market.

Thanks, silly me assumed a word like “enshittification” would just mean “made shitty”.
