MODERATORS
The vast majority of consumers don’t care. They look for a product which is in their budget, and they think does what they want.
The market will select for companies which and most profitable.
The best thing to do is to pass laws that make this practice of enshitification illegal.
Legislation like that seems reasonable considering the standards that exist for cars and bikes serve literally the same societal purpose as cars.
