"Enshittification" is a term coined by author and activist Cory Doctorow to describe a common lifecycle pattern in digital platforms where they start out good for users, then shift to benefit advertisers or the platform itself, eventually becoming bad for everyone — including users, creators, and even the company. . In Simple Terms Enshittification is what happens when tech platforms gradually become worse over time, usually in pursuit of profit. . The Lifecycle of Enshittification (per Doctorow): . 1. Starts good for users . 2. Platform offers value (free services, easy access, no ads) to attract users. . 3. Then shifts to favor creators or business partners . 4. More monetization tools for sellers, influencers, or advertisers. . 5. Then becomes exploitative to serve the platform itself . 6. Raises prices, floods users with ads, buries organic content, locks data, or removes features — all to extract maximum profit. . . Why It Happens . 1. Investor pressure: Platforms need constant growth . 2. Market dominance: Once they dominate a space, they can reduce quality without losing users (at first) . 3. No competition: Users have few alternatives or high switching costs . . The Endgame 1. Eventually, the platform becomes: . 2. Bad for users (too many ads, lost trust) . 3. Bad for creators (lower reach, worse revenue) . 4.Even bad for the company (user exodus, PR backlash) . Cory Doctorow’s Summary: “First, platforms are good to their users. Then they abuse users to make things better for business customers. Finally, they abuse everyone to claw back value for themselves.” . . Why It Matters Understanding enshittification helps: . 1. Spot declining platforms early 2. Value open-source and decentralized alternatives (e.g., Nostr, Mastodon) 3. Make smarter decisions about where you build your work and identity online . #Enshittification #NostrFixesThis #Opensource #Nostr #Siamstr #SocialMedia
