Every artist, performer and creator on Patreon is about to get screwed out of 30% of their gross revenue, which will be diverted to Apple, the most valuable company on the planet. Apple contributes nothing to their work, but it will get to steal a third of their wages. How is this possible? Enshittification.
Thoughts on this one? I have become nauseous after a couple paragraphs.
People foolish enough to use a centralized, proprietary technology getting what they deserve. I hardly see what’s wrong.
Apple should double down, in fact.
You are right that people have responsibility for their choices. The fact that apple is even allowed to do this is bad though.
