Are you new? No. Supply and demand is supposed to be the answer but it never is. The corporations will always just make implicit or backroom deals to enshittify everything specifically to deny you any choice in the matter.
Best case scenario, new businesses start out with real walls and doors but then swap them out to boost profit once they've established themselves. Worst case scenario, all new businesses start out with glass walls and/or shitty doors because otherwise they're "losing money".
no no its just coincidence that every single source offering a product or service gets worse it the same way at the same time.. over and over again for decades.. and that nobody ever seems to go "if I just.. don't do that I could pickup all this business"
Look, you’re not wrong that they work sometimes - but always is a stretch - I agree with you and I vote with my wallet, it’s been two years since I placed an order on Amazon or had McDonald’s or Starbucks, my business has been captured by better players BUT that hasn’t affected those players - I’m just one person, so are you, you/we have to get others to buy in because they’re not convinced yet that they have power (and honestly, I don’t know what it takes to convince people to band together - someone who successfully formed a union recently or something might)
90% of the reason why i make this kind of comments is because i know for a fact some people are paid to spread the idea that we cant win, or that our efforts are useless. When in fact they're powerful and do so much damage.
If i stay silent the lies will be louder and everyone will think they can't do anything.
You need a different approach because right now you seem like a fanatic and that’s just not attractive to the other side - ease people into this idea with subversive comments they can’t disagree with, don’t push so hard on your point
