Surely that can be said of any software - even those without any current AI stub functionality?
- johnnyanmac 3y agoYup, and hate it all there too.
- andybak 3y agoHate what? The possibility that it might change one day? I'm confused.
- johnnyanmac 3y agoI hate that it has happened before and that it very likely will happen again. I just hope Jetbrains isn't a future example. "it" being a more general "boiling frog" patter in tech on how companies started with humble pricings or offerings, but inevtiable try to rent seek more and more. Everything changed to subscription only, or subscriptions started adding ads anyway with you paying even more money for what you had before. I just hate how backhanded so much of it is; if you need to increases prices, increase them. dont't be passive aggressive. I guess people are calling it "enshittificaion", but it's a crude word I don't particularly care for.
