minus-squaredavel [he/him]@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·2 months agoOh… you mean cheaper as in shittier not less expensive. I don’t know of a name for it in general, but Cory Doctorow coined the term enshittification. Enshittification (alternately, crapification and platform decay) is a pattern in which online products and services decline in quality.
