Amazon is a perfect #enshittification parable - platforms subsidize end users until they're locked in, then make life good for business customers at users' expense, until *they're* locked in, then claw back all the value they can, leaving just enough to keep the lock-in going.

In a new report for @SOMO, @margaridasilva2 describes how the end-stage enshittification of Amazon is playing out in the #EU, with Amazon repeating its US playbook.

Amazon is *very* proud of its #flywheel: first, they subsidized customers, luriing in sellers. Then they demanded lower prices, luring more buyers. With more customers, more sellers piled in. Faster the flywheel spins, creating the #EverythingStore:

The flywheel is everywhere - they even teach it in business-schools. But Amazon is not a reliable narrator. It doesn't tell the truth about the flywheel. To understand what's really going on with the flywheel, you have apply #enshittification to it.

I’ve done 750 miles on the #PacificCrestTrail in the last year, up and down some of the country’s biggest mountains with 30 pounds on my back, usually 20 miles per day.
I’m in my #prime, baby. I’m 61.

But also, I don’t believe in cancel culture. I believe in apologies and human growth. I know @donlemon a little and know him to be a decent, even feminist guy who said a dumb and offensive thing. I’m sure he will learn from it.
For many of us women, the years after the kids are not only up and out but self sufficient, when our work has become successful and secure — these are the best years.

In the #enshittification cycle, a #platform lures users with a good deal at first, then it lures business customers (advertisers, sellers, creators) by handing them the #surplus; finally, it takes all the surplus for itself, creating a pile of shit:

When a company is neither disciplined by #competition nor by #regulation, enshittification inevitably ensues. 3/

Why is @Amazon selling Holocaust themed “Not Vaccinated” Star of David shirts on #Prime?
Description: “Great for Anti-Vaxxers, Medical Freedom Activists & Liberty Lovers”
Description: “Great for Anti-Vaxxers, Medical Freedom Activists & Liberty Lovers”
Amazon is still listing these offensive Holocaust themed anti-vaxxer shirts.
This is not a marketplace item, but an item sold by Amazon. @Amazon needs to take this down and find out who introduced this item to the site.
That description didn’t write itself.

That description didn’t write itself.
Covid has claimed 600,000 lives in the United States. Some were Amazon employees. Why is Amazon selling any of these anti-vaxx items at all?
1/ **how to increase your #amazon seller revenue and #buybox by using FBM as a #FBA backup so you never go out of stock**
2/ Over the past year, @amazon added stock limitations for sellers which means you can send only a certain amount of products to their fulfilment centre
3/ If Demand is high there is nothing you can do until you build enough sales velocity that will allow you to increase your storage level
Often you do have items in stock in your own 3PL but you can’t ship them to @amazon because of the limited inventory. What does happen next?

🥩BEEF: #Kobe, #Wagyu, #Prime - THREAD 🔥
- Where do they come from?
- Is one better than the other?
- Do they taste different?
- What’s my choice?

First of all - Kobe, Wagyu & Prime are CLASSES of beef, not types of COWS...
There are too many varieties of cattle to mention here.
Examples: Angus, Jersey, Highland, Holstein, Hereford, Simmental and 1000 more.
Ok?

Second - Kobe, Wagyu & Prime are not CUTS of beef...
Cuts refer to things like:
Ribeye, New York, Filet Mignon, Flank, Tri-tip, Skirt, Flat Iron, Porterhouse, etc...

[BREAKING] We have confirmed from multiple sources that @AmazonStudios new billion-dollar #LOTR series will open its first season centered on a young Aragorn.
Let's discuss whats available and how this opens up Tolkien's Legendarium. A thread. #Tolkien

Firstly, we must stamp out any remaining confusion:
From the first press release, we know this so-called #LOTR series will NOT be a retelling of the events of the War of the Ring. #BeenThereDoneThat
Instead it will be Appendices based and cover a lot of time and history. /2

This is the greatest advantage the show runners have: that so much of Tolkien’s storytelling, even just in “Appendix A,” covers a tremendous swath of time.
Starting with a young Aragorn narrative allows connections to his Numenorean bloodline (and to the founding of #Gondor). /3
