Amazon is one issue, but I think the larger enshittification is the proliferation of “marketplace” websites that allow any random imported junk to appeat right alongside quality products with actual manufacturer support.

Ydna@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are you tired of helping and educating people about because you know they'll just be ignorant anyway?2·10 months agoAll true… I’m just pointing it out because people are constantly railing about how the donation is supposedly a “free writeoff for the big businesses!111” when in reality isn’t true. I hate shitty big restaurants as much as the next guy but this ain’t it

Ydna@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are you tired of helping and educating people about because you know they'll just be ignorant anyway?251·10 months agoWhen you’re at a fast food drive thru and they offer to round up for a charity cause, YOU can claim that write-off donation on your taxes, not the restaurant. Of course virtually nobody would do that unless you save your receipts and tally them up next year… but you can!

I worked a contract job at a honey bottling plant in Mich where they would simply take 55 gallon drums of raw honey from all over the world, dump them into a giant tank, churn it up… then bottle it. That’s was it, nothing more nothing less. At one point in the past they used to add water, but they had stopped when I was installing the new mixing system (it was a patent thing). Makes me shake my head to see companies adding anything else to such a simple operation…
