    I have a feeling calling the “The Great” enshitification will age up like that one “The Great” War.

        I guess you are missing some history here. “The Great” War is not the war you’d think about by hearing that name.

        In fact, the name lasted about 15 years, never to be used again.

          I’m not sure what war you think one would be thinking about – I’ve only ever heard it used to refer to WW1.

            Their initial point was that the name “The Great War” aged like milk because WWII was bigger, not that any people thought it was good

              Ah, I see. Yeah, I had no idea that that’s what they were getting at because if something bigger came along, we could just call it “The Greater” X, lol
