Words change. He came up with a really good one and people ran with it. It no longer means what he initially made it to mean. That's how all language in all of the world works.

You're saying that if someone wants to descibe enshittification they need to invent a word for it?

You said that the definition of enshittification has changed since January, meaning that if someone wanted to describe "the process formerly known as enshittification" they'd presumeably need a new word, right?

I not disagreeing with you that words change over time, I'm just trying to keep up!
