The continuation of enshitification

I remember at one point that Amazon was amazing. Now days it’s a crapshoot on product quality and delivery time.

Amazon Prime: 2 day(ish) delivery.
Maybe they mean on average they deliver prime products in two days and that’s why there’s an increase in the next day products.

Etsy is now just as enshittified. Almost everything on there now is dropshipped bullshit from AliExpress. You have to trudge through a massive amount of crap listings just to find anything handmade now.

From what I have heard from sellers it’s as bad on the other end. Nobody wants to buy a piece of handmade jewelry for $50, when there is an Ali drop ship that says “hand made” for $5. It’s extremely difficult to judge the quality until the item arrives, so shoppers get conned into buying junk to save a few $ that they thought was hand made.

Amusingly there are a lot of fetish gear Etsy shops that are still above board, but not much else in my experience.
