It’s capitalism… When every CEO, Board Member, and shareholder wants a yacht, it’s literally never enough. They even created a term to describe this inevitable deterioration of every company’s product: enshittification.
It’s not that they all want yachts, they make enough to each buy multiple yachts. It’s just that nothing is ever enough. They don’t know what success is, so they chase the undefined feeling until they die unfulfilled. Fucking living dead and a cancer on collective humanity
Enshittification, also known as crapification and platform decay, is the term used to describe the pattern in which online products and services decline in quality over time. Initially, vendors create high-quality offerings to attract users, then they degrade those offerings to better serve business customers, and finally degrade their services to users and business customers to maximize profits for shareholders.
Oh course it does, what are you talking about? It applies to any product or service that can have its quality gradually and intentionally reduced in service of having its profit margin increase.
Originally coined it was meant to describe online software that started out useful and frequently free, then run into the ground when it came time to monetize it.

Just because people atarted using it to mean ‘stuff gets shitty’ doesn’t change the original meaning.
hence why i went to clarify it on the second comment. I can agree that on the first attempt, it can be read off, but the second attempt clearly shows that roku tvs are affected regardless of how you read it
Basically punishment for people who either don’t get their own streaming box/avoid tvs with roku built in.
What? This is reported to be happening on both sticks and tv versions of the rolu app.

They want nesting yachts.
And once they have a nesting yacht, they want an even bigger yacht to nest that one in.
It’s yachts all the way up.
Enshittification was coined for online services, which includes roku, but doesn’t apply to all products.
Edit for the contrarians.
Whether it was coined for all products or not, it’s definitely applying to all products

Go fucking read about it.

American businessmen: “Hold my beer and watch this”
hence, punishing those who didnt get their own streaming box (that isnt roku based), or has a tv that has roku built into it.
The article clearly states
It IS affecting tvs with roku built in.
hence its PUNISHING those who bought tvs that have it BUILT IN
Then you are writing it to mean the opposite of what you intended.
Is this what you meant?

Not what your original comment said. And completely disingenuous too, since the Roku streaming box is one of the most popular ones
