❓Have you noticed that digital products and services are getting worse?

The video itself is pretty shitty. How it "informs" about enshittification without even using the c-word (capitalism) makes me wonder: is this a conscious choice (if so: what's the rationale behind this choice?) or a lack of consciousness?
@torstentorsten @finnmyrstad @pluralistic
The remit of the Forbrukerråd is to help Norwegian consumers with problems they experience when purchasing/leasing goods and services from companies.Their remit does not extend to recommending one or another type of economic system.
With this video the Forbrukerråd has given (Norwegian) consumers a word to hang their frustrations on when they encounter yet another example of #enshittification in their digital lives.
Which is the point of this video.

@papiris @finnmyrstad @pluralistic
I'd like to add some german tech-coops:
https://tech-coops.de/@Rosenrot @finnmyrstad @pluralistic
For sure!
In my comment I was going for co-ops and similar organisations where the users have democratic co-determination, but tech workers' co-ops are certainly a vital and important part of the ecosystem.To contribute to your list, here are links to some of the tech workers' co-ops I've had the pleasure of meeting and/or conversing with:
- @agaric, member of the international tech co-op federation @patio
- @tak
- @autonomic (also member of Patio)
- @Cloud68
- @interstitial_coop
- https://robur.coop
- https://doop.coop
- https://ogtall.no
- https://19.coop
- https://platformcoop.de
- https://digidemlab.org (and https://collective.tools)
- https://syndicats.coand for an even wider list, there's https://tech-coops.xyz/
and finally, me and two other folks are in the process of starting a tech workers' co-op in Norway
