Enshittification is caused by greed and opportunity. Anything that can be exploited for profit will be exploited --- eventually.<p>Venture capital is just an enhanced and amplified version of it.
Cory Doctorow's clarification of <i>enshittification as a result of collapsing constraints</i> is worth considering. I'd never before thought of it as an application of the Theory of Constraints.<p>Also, the "Capitalism v. Capitalism" mentioned--tech monopolies vs. businesses trapped on their platforms--is well-put. It's always been a part of his talks on enshittification, but few seem to hear that part.<p>I'm way too unfamiliar with Bluesky/Atproto to comment, but I liked the motive he described: "why leave 20 million people at risk of enshittification..."
