“Enshittification will continue until revenue improves”
Until and beyond.
Revenue improves. “We did it! But… line must always go up!? More!” Enshittification will continue until death occurs.
Jokes on them, I don’t have any.
Oh. I made myself sad.
It’s okay, Team Snapchat is the only person that sends me anything either (>•_•)><3
Is snapchat still a thing? Never used that but I thought from screenshots and memes that tiktok killed it (never used that either)
Gen Z loves it for some reason
I never understood that. Apparently they use it as a primary way of messaging each other? At least that’s what younger relatives have told me. I’ve tried to have them explain what makes the app designed to hide/delete stuff after it’s been read better for communication, but so far haven’t gotten an explanation I could make any sense of.
Yeah my brother says its the main way to talk to girls, which sexting was its original purpose so makes sense. But also the streak system and ease of picture messaging I think keeps people using it.
I guess I’m too boomer to understand it, because I hate the idea of “picture messaging.” Text is so much easier to interact with…

Tbh I only know 2-3 people who use it actively. Most use instagram DMs. I like snapchat for the face filters though
I think it’s still used a lot for private messaging?
“private”
I think you mean ‘direct’ messaging
Maybe. I’ve only known Snapchat used for sending pictures of one’s privates, which is quite direct now that I think about it.
Have they fixed the issue where anyone with the URL to your pic can see it?
As far as I’ve read, it’s never been private, let alone encrypted.
Nobody I know my age (early 30s) uses it any more. Instagram stories killed Snapchat stories. I don’t know if Instagram has a disappearing messages option though.
Mt family/friend group use it as a way to send pics/videos since MMS isn’t great for that… at least that’s what they say, I don’t have it.
I asked the same question, my friends all abandoned it for Instagram years ago, but I (an American) am seeing a lot of Europeans using it during my travels
Definitely, I have a few group chats. It’s good for general memery and snapping funny things throughout the day.
Me throughout my day:
I used it to receive nudes and spicy pics from one girl I dated. Downloaded it for that purpose alone. Deleted it when we stopped talking
Headline: Social Media Service Announces Ridiculous Enshittification Plan
Me: ? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Somebody asked where they could find me on social media the other day and my response was “strange places using fake names”. Eventually turned into me trying to pitch the fediverse but it kinda landed in much the way birds don’t.
At least you had a towel with you.
Always know where your towel is.
Well if this happens I’m getting rid of it. Yeah I’m older and I use it. But it’s great for the girlfriend and I to quickly send messages and nsfw things. Now that I think about it, I only use it because of her.
These ads will be the last straw. The stupid AI chatbot forces itself to the top of your list already, and above that, they throw in a stupid Snapchat+ ad! Oh yeah, in order to delete the AI bot as a friend, you need Snapchat+…
nsfw things
Why would you use unencrypted social media for that?
You do understand that Snapchat keeps a copy?
Not in Canada where the “girlfriend” “lives” they don’t 🤪
I think I missed the “girlfriend” part lol
Use signal which has temporary messages
The ads are the last straw? Hahaha
Unencrypted shit show of a “service”.
Have they fixed the problem where if someone has the URL, they can see your NSFW pics?
Lol no u won’t
Aaaaand that’s going to be it for snapchat. FUCK the greed, fuck your ads. FUCK your analytics.
I think Slipknot wrote a song about that lol
Swim in the swamp, you’ll get leeches
Are they stupid? In fairness, I don’t know how they’re making any money at all. I’ve never seen anyone interact with the discover feed and therefore see ads. There really isn’t a way to monetize Snapchat without killing it off.
Remember Snapchat had the cool feature of showing you “today, X years ago”?
Why did they fuck that up and you get random collages now. It was such a great feature that they have now ruinedIsn’t that what Google photos does too? I’m slowly degoogling but I must say, I do enjoy that feature. It kinda gives purpose to the random pictures one takes.
I wish we made more offensive memes using established brands that way we can keep their ads out of our online spaces
I would like it very much if the first thing that came up in a casual search for any business was sweaty rule 34 fantasies
Company logos on buttplugs, the advertisement of the future.
Not his car belongs to the CEO of a similarly named company that makes vape juice https://www.tmz.com/2017/12/02/snapchat-ceo-evan-mistaken-identity-bad-driver-lamborghini/
No it isn’t: I don’t use SnapChat!
I know social media shows us stuff it wants us to see, but Snapchat shows the absolute worst shit, it has never once shown me something I’d ever want to see. It really is the most ratchet app.
My god why do I still have it, I gotta talk to my therapist about this
Hey it’s me, your therapist. It’s for the nudes.
God you’re right, this is why I pay you the big bucks
Just uninstall it, you’ll be happier.
Oh no enshittification in crap I don’t use. The horror!
Honestly Snapchat was fun, but what killed it for me was when it started randomly adding/following users when my account was inactive for a while. So I’d start getting notifications about xyz posting, and I don’t even know who they are
I’m convinced they’re doing this to pad user activity
