I just tooted, in regard to the long ago removal of RSS feeds from Twxtter, Fxcebook etc, that they “shit those down to enhance lock-in”. I meant “shut those down” not “shit those down” but now in my headcanon “to shit down” means to enshittify a product by removing a feature that is beloved to users but obstructs profit-maximization.

Switching back to Firefox as my daily driver has not been without incident. I still can't rely on it for video calls (audio goes weird, apparently a regression was introduced recently), and it's crashy in a lossy way. I haven't had to put this much effort into restoring my tabs in years 😅 The sharp edges are worth it given the tradeoffs (weighing up privacy and the value of browser engine diversity), but my goodness I hope this gets better.

The Cypress.io situation is wild! https://currents.dev/posts/v13-blocking In short: when installing the Cypress npm package, on postinstall it checks what other packages you installed, and you're using any packages they don't like (e.g. tools for self-hosting that compete with their cloud service) then it refuses to run. More detailed summary from @jess@webtoo.ls here: https://twitter.com/_jessicasachs/status/1712043659330310488 Very hard to argue your product is good if you have to actively block your customers from even testing alternatives! Yikes.
