I wish you were exaggerating but my workplace has been sending multiple bricked laptops a week in for warranty. All windows update.

Maybe if you're worried about decreasing traffic don't require an account just to read something on the internet.

It’s a for profit company in a for profit society

True, but IMO their entire business model was to not be assholes, and businesses like that tend to hang on at least a bit better than this. I'm not saying I'm completely surprised though.

I wonder if this will be the last reddit exodus, I don't know how they can enshittify further so I imagine those that remain are pretty complacent.

I already think proton mail is pretty slow to render/load, they don't have much room to make it worse before it's too much-in other words they better be real careful with that vibe coding.

In general these events have me thinking of switching providers (and I have a paid tier).

It's somewhat comforting knowing we're all equals in terms of our mortality, for now.

A phone that would fit in my cup holder, and I could reach the other corner of the screen with my thumb-without moving the phone around was so much more usable.

I can't wait for a base linux install to be 60 GB of slop, like windows.

Healthequity tried forcing this passkey garbage on me, and they wouldn't allow me to manage investments over the phone, so I ended up transferring everything to a different HSA provider. Not giving in. I love TOTP though.

Ive always kept an offline copy of anything I cared about, if anything asks for my ID in the future I am definitely doing without or finding an alternative, mass noncompliance is important.
