This feels like it's starting to go downhill. A major AI platform suddenly announced the introduction of an advertising mechanism on its mainstream applications, which has many people worried that the core experience will be compromised. Free users may be forced to accept more and more commercialized content, and the paid model may also be adjusted accordingly. From a community perspective, this kind of aggressive monetization strategy often signals a shift in platform priorities—from user value to shareholder value. As decentralized applications become increasingly mature, decisions made by such centralized platforms will often push some users to seek alternatives.

They're at it again, cutting the leeks. This time, they're playing really aggressively.

actually if you run a basic regression analysis on platform enshittification timelines, you'll see this follows the exact same pattern every single time. the correlation coefficient is practically 1.0 at this point. but sure, everyone acts surprised when a centralized platform prioritizes revenue extraction over user utility... shocking.

That's why I've been researching alternatives early on — it's a common problem with centralized platforms.
