Why does it feel like we're at a point where every social media + other digital media are making shitty decisions and falling apart?

I mean there's Reddit ofc, as well as Twitter in its entirety, Discord is implementing some dumb updates, there are issues with Tumblr as well as everything to do with Meta, and I'm sure there are plenty more (and I haven't even touched other digital media, for example the Sims). Why is it all happening in the span of about a couple months?

  • ChatGPT and Stable Diffusion are the reasons. I’m starting to see commercials that are using highest tier video tech. Just keep pushing.

    That’s one community that’s worth supporting.

    • What? That's an... interesting theory. I've heard a few bad reasons to dislike generative AI, but this is a new one!

    • How is Stable Diffusion connected to bad/short term orientated social media company policy changes? The ChatGPT connection I understand, even if I don’t think it’s the root cause. (Interest rate increases I think are more fundamental, even if AI is cited by companies as an influence on their choices.)
