Comment on Homeowner baffled after washing machine uses 3.6GB of internet data a day
thirteene@lemmy.world 2 months agoADHD, OCD and other neuro atypicals often need reminders or an action item that needs to be cleared. The features can be used by an infinite set of one offs, starting a load remotely before driving home from work, sometimes you are just under a time crunch. The burden of responsibility here is product enshitification not making us fear features, not someone wanting to utilize a feature rich product.

Thank for the reply… I do get that accessibility part for anyone with any disability…however, any device that requires manual interaction, benefits little from remote starting … why would you put in a load but start it 8 hours later?
In any case, 100% in agreement that the fault lies with the vendors enshitification and not the product or feature … Same with the home assistant, AI, gene mapping (23&me stuff), etc
