Enshittification is completely out of hand!
Whether it’s Google cramming more ads in search results, or Apple taking a cut out of Patreon donations, or Meta putting AI slop in all feeds, it’s obvious that enshittification is getting out of hand.
Luckily, there are ways to fight back. And if you’re a developer there are steps you can take to make your application as enshittification resistant as possible.
A self certification process with a somewhat official blessing*
The Enshittification Resistant Software Project aims to make it easy to gauge how enshittification resistant your application is — and also reward you with a nice badge to display on your website.
Answer a series of yes / no questions and find out, in less time than it takes to prepare a package of instant noodles.
So, have a look at the fancy flow chart, follow it to the end, and then badge your application with the most* official enshittification resistant certificate in the known universe!
