That's an extremely narrow point that isn't worth bothering with, because nobody is confused about what you mean when you call them "nazis".

Also it's not one guy doing a zeig heil, it's become a trend amongst them now. They have invited the comparison openly, and anybody getting all pissy about "you just call everything you don't like nazi" is just a crybully who's deliberately wasting your time. At this point anybody turned off of your cause by your use of the word "nazi" isn't your ally in the first place.

Like sure they're not exactly the same as the NSDAP, but the category still applies, and it's not worth anybody's time splitting hairs over the exact nature of the type of fascism they have, because "nazi" does the job and again, nobody is confused by it, because the original nazis are all resting in piss.

Do you have any argument as to why this matters, in any way, at all?

They are literally zeig-heiling.

You're noticing that Gell-Mann Amnesia.

I looked it up yesterday because I kept seeing it in an Angela Collier video title and I realised that despite watching the video and re-checking the info several times, I could never remember what Gell-Mann amnesia was, and that was too ironic to be allowed to continue. So this time instead of looking it up and going "ooohh, that's right, okay, nevermind", I went, "okay, now repeat it to yourself until you're sure you won't have to look it up again".

It's still enabled by default and acts as FUD for the average user who won't know to disable it and will get spooked by it.

That it can be opted out of doesn't change its propaganda value at all.

They'll have to settle for "warning" the user if they detect a file that was made by libreoffice.

Capital calls its own theft "innovation" and that of the individual "crime".

Friend of mine who'd been in the room for bone surgeries said it was basically just carpentry. All saws, drills & screws.

As you wish.

I came here looking for it, so I may as well follow through on the prompt.

Some of them will actively advocate for user-unfriendliness to keep out the noobs which... I mean the number of psy-ops in the community has to be non-zero.

It's just really weird that you turn to profit motive as a benefit when we're talking about systems that tend to enshittify, and that's like, the main thing that makes them enshittify.

My argument is about how enshittification destroys platforms, and platforms that don't do that will retain their growth. Bluesky has all the ingredients to enshittify, mastodon doesn't.

Yes they need to work on their onboarding, but unlike bluesky, they can keep going at it till it sticks. Centralised platforms get a launch, and a lifecycle, and then they tend to go away.

Quite literally the opposite of what you said. If a platform is central, it can be switched off tomorrow. Nobody can do that to the fediverse as long as the internet exists. The idea that hobbyists are somehow less reliable than fucking corporations is also absurd. Have you met corporations?

This is literally a tortoise-and-the-hare situation.

If you can explain the existence of wikipedia under your theory then I'll listen to you, but like... wow. Profit motive, what a joke. That's literally what causes enshittification.
