Ask HN: Companies in Enshittification Mode?
Tell me some companies who gathered a lot of users and are now locking them in and raising prices.
Here's a few I know:
1. Qualtrics: Doubled their prices last year, product is really buggy.
2. Unity: Almost charged developers per game install.
3. Blu Smart: Swore to never use surge pricing. Introduced "rush hour" pricing instead.
Who else?
