Welcome to Enshitification

A community for everyone who didn't realise it was spelled 'enshittification'.

This is your space to document the decay, demise, and destruction of the tech world as we know it. Share stories, articles, and firsthand experiences that capture the ongoing decline of once-celebrated platforms, services, and companies in the late stage capitalist landscape.

From monopolistic corporate shifts to anti-user updates and the relentless pursuit of profit over quality—if it’s broken, bloated, or just plain bad, it belongs here. We’re here to spotlight the moves that make the tech world worse, one piece of enshittification at a time.

Guidelines
🔹 Stay on Topic: Only post content about the decline of tech products, platforms, or companies.
🔹 Quality Content: Give some context when posting links or articles to drive quality discussions.
🔹 Respectful Discussion: Critique companies, crappy tech, and capital, not community members.
🔹 Positive Monday: The first Monday of every month is reserved for positive content only that shows enshittification isn't inevitable.

Join us to expose the changes that ruin the things we once loved and to discuss what comes next in a tech world gone wrong.

Wow 2 full days. My Oukitel does 3 weeks.

[–] victorz 4 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Wow, my Nokia 3310 does 30 days. What's your point? 2 full days is way more than I need it to do. I can charge whenever. 🤷‍♂️

You present it like it's a good thing.

Those battery lives are absolutely terrible.

I've also heard it's more like 1 day if you actually use it.

[–] victorz 2 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

Nah, it's two days and more with plenty of use.

It all depends on what you need. It's not at all terrible if you have plenty of opportunity to charge. I charge every day, once a day, and I'm never below like 60%. Sometimes I choose not to charge for a day, and the next evening it's at like 40% or so.

Very comfortable battery capacity. And the battery life is also great. My last phone, which was a Pixel 6, was also like this. I rarely ever went even close to the bottom half percentages on my phone, with plenty of screen hours each day. And it was like this all up until I switched phones. Barely any degradation noticed.

My Pixel 6 I still keep around with battery saver on, and I charge it once a week.

Maybe you shouldn't listen to what you hear, sometimes. 👍

Exactly what I'm doing right now. 👍

Alright bro. Buy whatever you want to buy. 😂 Nobody's forcing you to change your opinion of anything. I'm just giving you my experience and perspective. 👍

[–] x00z -1 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Yes and i give my experience. 😂😂😂😂

You seem sarcastic. Like you're looking to one-up me or something. It's been the vibe all through this "conversation". I think others have the same feeling given the vote count...

How insufferable

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Who doesn't charge their phone when they sleep at night?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago

I charge it whenever it gets below 10 or dies. My pixel 6 pro gets something like a day and a half maybe? I dont charge it everyday.

[–] victorz 0 points 4 days ago

Well, granted, if I didn't need to I wouldn't. I don't need to do so each night either, maybe every other night, but it still doesn't reach even 30% in two days.
