        10 was already deep into hiding settings and fragmenting the control panel.

        11 is much worse.

            It wouldn’t be impossible that 12 is an improvement. 10 was an improvement on 8. I think, as always, it’ll never go back to a truely good OS, we will just get used to the crap bits.

            I think windows is too entrenched in it’s own version history to make good again. You’d need to start from scratch which simply won’t happen within the windows brand.

    Netflix is leaning hard into trying to make you watch anything other than what you want to watch. This is such a weird obsession of tech companies. Websites do it all the time. I’m trying to read an article and they keep shoving pictures and links to other articles all over the middle of what I’m reading. Oh, and when I get half way through, they refresh the page so the can show me more things I’m not interested in. Fucking wankers.

      TikTok proves it works and keeps people with low attention spans addicted and more likely to watch ads. This should become an unethical practice like pyramid schemes. If your website shows a high percentage of unrelated content, it should be seized by the government.

      I think they do it because getting you to go to the thing is the point, not watch the thing. Once you’ve gone to the thing they just want you to go to the next thing. Watching the thing is just wasted time for them.

      It probably has to do with maximizing your exposure to advertising.

    I’m behind, how did Minecraft get enshittified? I catch the occasional stream and the game looks like it’s on another level from when I last played in like 2012

      Java edition is still generally okay, but MS has been trying to cram it in the typical mobile game mold with a store and stuff. If MS had made Minecraft, we’d probably have item stacks of 10 or 100 rather than 64. :D

    Literally all of those are still incredibly popular and one of the leaders in their respective space. Sure, they have been “enshittified”, but not killed off by it yet. .

    Yeah, but you can still enjoy 1.7.10 + 1.12.2 not the same could be said for all the other things

      I’m still bitter about the SSP/SMP merge. 1.2.5 runs so good.
