I’m putting this in chat and not in Technology because I’m also wondering about things like clothes, appliances—basically any sort of consumer product, virtual or physical, you can think of that you feel has retained some standard of quality and has not yet been enshittified. I would start by saying that Wikipedia has not yet been enshittified, but perhaps you disagree? Post is inspired by this video.

EDIT: coyotino correctly points out that Wikipedia isn’t a product but a service; poor word choice on my part, just trying to cast a wide a net as possible here in the hopes of making a list of “things that are still good that don’t suck.” Like I said, a wide net 🙂.

    Nintendo

    I wanted to debate on that but you are right. They haven’t really gotten worse, they are just doing what they always do.

      Exactly. Out of the big 3, they stick to their guns of making solid hardware, great 1st party games and not gouging customers for online service.

      Now if they would REASONABLY charge for their remastered games, I’d have almost nothing to complain about.

        Their war against emulation will always be wrong for me. One of the causes is the price for their remaster.

        not gouging customers for online service.

        I find really shit that they charge extra to play N64 games when you only need the online subscription to play the SNES ones.

        Everything else I’m completely fine with.
