Enshittification: has everything become a bit shit?
Manage episode 425828635 series 2664539
The term ‘enshittification’ was coined by British-Canadian blogger Cory Doctorow at the start of 2023 to describe the decline of social media platforms.
It captures the idea that something which was once great eventually becomes crappy overtime due to excessive profit-chasing.
The term has broken into the cultural zeitgeist and is now being used to describe everything from major events to clothes, coffee, housing, and everything in between.
Recently, disgruntled Sydneysiders used the term to describe this year’s Vivid festival, which they say has deteriorated in the pursuit of making money. So, why does a chunk of the population feel like everything is just a bit shit right now? And is it just capitalism in action?
On this episode of The Briefing, expert in 'Uncomfortable Conversations' Josh Szeps joins Sacha Barbour Gatt to explore if everything really is becoming a bit shit.
