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 🙂.

    On the other hand, games rely on Gog Galaxy for some features, and Galaxy is not available for all platforms which they sell games for (specifically, Linux).

      While that sucks, it’s only some games, and AFAIK they only rely on Gog Galaxy for the multiplayer features sometimes, and maybe achievements.

      I’m also still holding out hope they’ll come out with a Linux version of GOG Galaxy. For now, for my single player gaming purposes, running the games using Lutris (or Heroic, which I’ve heard is even better for this) is good enough for my Linux gaming needs.
