    Yeah, we’re a society. Things happen outside of grammar and word rules handed down to us from above…

      lol, no rules… it’s just a stupid word that sounds stupid and makes anyone who uses it look stupid…
      Shakespeare invented tons of words, and they were all great, inventing new words is great. enshittification, in particular, is just lazy and dumb
      p.s. love it when people do dumb shit and then defend the general category of what they’re doing as if that was the problem

        What you describe as the word’s flaws make it perfect though. The word itself is an icon for the actions it describes

        It’s main problem is that people overuse it massively and act like they’re saying something really clever by using it

          yep. it’s like pseudo-intellectuals got too lazy to learn big words and use them incorrectly, so they just added syllables to “shitty”
