Why The Quality Of Everything Is F*cking Trash Now (www.youtube.com)

Your toaster dies the second you unbox it. Pants rip on day one. The quality of everything is trash now. This is what bigheaded people call enshittification. Companies deliberately design products to break right after the warranty. This is due to the so-called “Hunt for Infinite growth.” Steady profits ain’t enough. They need MORE, so they skimp, shrink packages, and shove everything behind subscriptions. Infinite growth is a plague, and it hurts your personal finance.

You were shopping at a store with cheap products then.

So name it.

What is this store that sells high durability consumer products?

[–] village604@adultswim.fan 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

An appliance store...

You're going to have to give a detailed explanation of your process here.

What store did you imagine I went to?

[–] architect@thelemmy.club 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Walmart.

In store try Williams Sonoma for higher quality.

This literally the first time in my life that I, an American, has heard someone call 'William Sonoma' a quality brand.
