Stopped poking my head in communities like !technology@lemmy.world because the frequent bad news posts, followed by rightfully upset comments, was depressing and stressful. And it just felt worse that there was so much outrage, but usually not a comment telling you alternative options or small actions you could take to try to resist the enshittification—rage with no productive outlet besides complaints online. So I’m popping my head back in here because I feel it would be useful to post somewhere that tries to give you those things and has a rule against posting bad news with no action we can take to maybe claw back value for ourselves: !deshittification@thebrainbin.org

If you must talk about enshittification, please include how someone could reverse it; otherwise, post it elsewhere

Overall sidebar:

State of affairs for technology seem bad? But what is being done to change it? And what could be done by you so it changes at least for yourself?

A community to talk about the reversal of enshittification, be it news, actions that could be done, etc.

A person that sees no solution has no reason to keep going.

Hope others here are heartened by it as I was.

Full disclosure: I don’t mod this community or otherwise have power in it. I just post sometimes.
