Is ridiculous how companies and services have lost their exclusivity just to fit into the "modern standard" with the biggest contamination being the Minimalism brought by Google, which in its origin and proposal of own creators was to exist freedom and control
Discord losing its tag system, Linux copying Windows layout, iPhone losing its slider, Android losing functions
All to look like an Instagram, something more "common to use", a detail that seems like a mere useless look, but that's what makes someone look and say "I know where this comes from", but now:
@iGiveMyAssToCompanies
It can be literally more than 1,000 platforms, but:
iHateMyUsers#121212
You know from where it come, when you look to a phone and see this glassy robust, metalic styles, you don't necessary remember iPhone, you remember because Android refused it
Many don't remember the Golden Age, when Android locked your out for 5 minutes after 3 password errors, while today a bruteforce is so easy that becomes funny to say that there is "security" in locking the screen for 30 seconds after more than 100 attempts, in some cases 30-50, now allowing you to interact with everything on notification panel, this one that not exist in old versions.
Because convenience is inovation, and inovation means no defense, there's Safety.
Linux is unique precisely because the flexibility, being destroyed by those who put a bar underneath, desktop with icons and the logo in the corner, not wrong by design, wrong to copy shamelessly, without the slightest modification, being explicitly a Windows, taking from Linux what makes it a Linux: Control.
Choose from millions which one is the rounder and has the most different font from 500 equal Serifs, between dark and light colors with tiny differences in pastel tones, choose your slower animations
Each time these unique, beautiful, powerful, skeumorphic styled, loaded and full of functionalities desktops are being consumed by solid colors, simplifications and infinite copies of resources that already exist, rotting the mind of society that barely knows how to create a Folder through Terminal, the curse that Windows itself brought
Interfaces are the opposite of disadvantage, but when that becomes 5 buttons in white screen and nothing more, contradicts the concept, users who read 4 lines on the screen and say it's too much information
Every day companies forget why they came, it was for money, always was
But not blind profit, this money was intended to grow its own concept, make Discord accessible, large, functional
Both have crimes, both have all the problems, but only one really could solve something
Not a shitty application weighing 2 GB, which crashes, is poorly optimized and full of useless functions, compared to the 80 MB of the old one, for most "simple" it was, it worked.
Android can be simple, can miss "modern" functions, but is not vulnerable, now it's like any decade-old system, remove 89% of today conveniences to remove mostly attack surface, starting from Google
Today Google is no longer a "company" it's just a blind profit, money and money that enter, doesn't go anywhere, isn't invested, everything is so automated that Humans don't exist, if you've ever had to contact the support of any Google service by their incompetence you know that, wherever it is, none of those emails, users or messages are real, just generic predefined messages, just like in Gmail support, just to say "It's full", of Lies and Shame. Old days hard to be sure, today easier to Gemini do more organically.
The few that remained are gradually disappearing, not by choice but by lack of it, being unique is no longer innovative, innovating is being more and more generic, surprising the user by making his life easier until he no longer needs to be useful
A fucked corpse rotting in a lame incompetent even to get up and eat, while the world outside is increasingly decimated by fire, garbage and pollution, because the easiest is comfortable, and the comfortable is cheap, people who will not complain, will just accept everything quietly, whoever has the courage to fight will be swallowed by those who have money, a corpse the Earth will not enjoy, unless the devastation evaporate the concrete enough
Evil always wins. No exceptions.
That's why dialogue is useless, that's how all these companies got to where they are.
That's how certain governments still here, by sweet words of tons of paper you will not read "obey or die"
Society will remain silent until the last second, not by incompetence, it recognizes that is useless to try, will be useless as long as they continue and still to recognize and accept this
The bomb did not explode because it accepted that it was possible, was because it took risks, it was by taking risks that a company devastated a country with radiation, it was how the ozone layer disintegrated and it was why a ponopoly emerged in an operating system that only serves to feed a machine that has nothing left to fill
Unlike this illusion I will still keep in my own pattern, as well as many others I will be forgotten and inevitablely eliminated
Because I know how to do it, unlike a mere canvas that a rushed shitted A4 sheet can be more detailed.
The industry will consume everything and everyone, will be too late when they realize this.
Keep up the Enshittification, the next to be recycled is you, money will always exist, while geniality and capacity reduces to computers recycling information from the internet, or rest what one day you was
Being unique has consequences, that's what brought Google, Apple, Microsoft and many others, it will be the same thing to end itself, creation itself slowly decimating its source until no other be able to emerge.
Parasites eating your own existence, until where we gonna see.
