Enshittification- A post brought to you by complaints of another Beeper user

I was having a conversation with my previous boss/good friend. He’s an old school extremely capable computer technician but too busy to keep up with most of the current internet drama. Anyways here is the conversation that sparked this post.

Whatsapp Is still Terrible

WhatsApp has got to be the single most infuriating piece of software I interact with on a daily basis. Why the fuck would I want a auto reply sent to someone I just messaged. Must be a hard computer science problem to have a if statement in your code to not send an auto replay to someone message in the last specific time period. No I cant leave because of the network effect but thanks.I swear to...
