Youtube, twitter, and reddit have obviously been in the news a lot recently, but every day business applications also seem to just keep getting worse. Got new PCs at work which means version updates, and pretty much everything we use (autocad, adobe acrobat, and ms office, mainly) all seem to run much slower, despite the computers having substantially higher specs. Love that I can't use any old versions or alternatives because they refuse to grant me admin access.

I love capitalist innovation! Why make things better when you could just make them worse and charge more?

    Maybe...but Meta fucked up with VR...they may not have the capital, which means the consolidation will be kicked upstairs to Wall Street.

      If Meta doesn't have the Capital to do it, who does? Is the entire world and everything in it going to be owned by Amazon and Blackrock in the not-too-distant future?
