   Netflix, Google, Amazon, Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, HBO Max, and countless more: we have reached the stage of late stage capitalism, web edition, where the fashionable thing to do, having eradicated your competitors, is to deliberately make your product utterly fucking useless.

   What a world!

     I’m particularly noting that on Reddit, as communities start to shut down, the bulk of the notifications I’m getting there now are porn spambots following me.

     @goatsarah How do you end up with followers? Or did I turn the off somehow?

     I’ve got 400k comment karma or something, and like one follower:)
