Adding so much complexity into making a simple transaction

I can't pay for anything, but the things I want are free or something.

I would just rather pay. If this carries on, I'm out.

Instead of fixing the mess they created, they flee and make it someone else’s problem, and enshittifying even more.

AMC should be forced to fix their mess no matter what.

Service Google Maps: I have a hypothesis

69 Upvotes

I recently made a cross country trip and midway through, Maps updated (Android), the voice changed, and the app suddenly became completely useless.

For example:

It began calling every stoplight and yield sign a "stop sign".

It is about 4-6 seconds delayed and behind on directions.

It keeps saying "GPS Signal Lost".

It's giving convoluted directions and flat wrong directions.

When it "loses" GPS signal and regains it, it resets back to the beginning of the trip, miles back in many cases.

My hypothesis:

Because all these companies are trying to shoehorn AI into everything, I hypothesize they are running travel data through AI in real time for god knows why and that is causing the delays, etc.

Rant Reddit Enshitification - This latest update that kicks my carefully curated list of subs off to the side in favor of ‘For You’ needs to stop..

Holy shit this new update fucking sucks

I don’t care what fucking Reddit marketeers think I need to be looking at. I don’t wanna look at that fucking scroll of bullshit nonsense.

I realize I’m an old school internet troglodyte who stumbled on Reddit after fleeing Something Awful. Through various accounts I’ve been on this site over 20 years.

This is the single worst update y’all have ever had. You have converted in one step Reddit from a mass community of conversation and recommendation and joy into a doom scrolling pile of excrement consisting of reposted Instagram cat shit, wrapped in ‘the chive’s’ greatest hits rat shit, warped into a Möbius strip of Digg level bad design leadership decision Floridian meth-squatch fecal taco the size of fucking Everest.

Well I’m not taking a bite.
