"We"?

Yes. There's a whole book explaining what enshittification means, and it's not merely "gets worse".

  • Glad to hear about the book. I'll check it out. It would be interesting to read the author's opinions.

    Otherwise I don't understand (yet) what point you're making. Who claimed that S.O. "merely got worse?" I see a discussion with many more specifics than that. One commenter in this thread mentioned griefing users. That's a familiar artifact of enshittification. (The white boxes covering up Google Maps, for example. Or the way Quora destroyed its own site in a quest to "improve questions".)
