Anyone who has worked for Boeing over the past couple decades will regale you with stories of profit over plane. We're seeing that play out in tech right now. Google is extracting profit over innovation, Amazon is putting profit over quality, Facebook is putting profit over safety and mental health.
Where are the execs who have any long term aspirations or vision?

- dclowd9901 3y agoThere’s a reason “enshittification” has become an almost mainstream term. I don’t know what’s happened in the last few years but it seems like every company under the sun is dumping quality for profit.
- Dalewyn 3y agoI have only ever heard "enshittification" parroted around this circle (HN) and some tech Youtubers with any regular frequency, and that's not for a lack of exposure to animosity. Folks here have a very bad habit of thinking themselves the world, I've come to notice. Also, product quality going down over time might as well be a law of nature. It's been around since long before you or I were even born.
- dclowd9901 3y agoI’ve seen the term on all sorts of Reddit subs (not just tech ones). Granted there’s probably some overlap.
