That's not how enshittification, vendor lock in, and network effects work. You're participating in the collective delusion that we have perfect market competition.

explain the dynamics of how enshittification would work here?

  • People stay on the shitty platform because it is convenient and still does what they need.

    See extreme-enshitification-of-already-shitty Windows vs free Linux.

    • Linux is becomming enshitified, at least the big distros. Snaps, some would argue systemd, wayland, etc. Continually requiring more and more resources just to install and run.
