    It does if you inflate the price of the base tier, then add a new lower tier at the old price. With ads.

    That’s not enshittification that’s a price increase. They’re not obligated to keep the same price point forever.

    Or if you have less content and charge more.

    Not enshittification because that’s literally how the industry works. Now imagine they have literally all the content, won’t you be saying it’s a MONOPOLY, KILL THEM ASAP?

    Or if you stop making content with creatives having control and instead make it based on producer led content.

    Not enshittification.

    Or if you start changing up the cover art of different content and sprinkle it in different categories to give the appearance of more content.

    Wow person learns how algorithms and categories work. What a revelation.

    Or if you claim to be about freedom of speech and not judging content based on being offensive or controversial, but then fire workers that you feel are offensive or controversial.

    Not enshittification.

    Or if you start buying your competition with the intention of having less competition.

    Didn’t you just say above you wanted more content?

    This is just people crying about something they don’t like. If you don’t want to use the service don’t use it.
