Open internet is replaced by consumption platforms, whose business model requires passive engagement. A user who spends X hours going down a tech rabbit hole, breaking things in a terminal is worth less to them than a user who watches X hours of content. They don’t ban tech material. They algorithmically deprioritize anything that demands active engagement and reward passive consumption. This culture treats passive consumption as the default relationship with technology. https://fireborn.mataroa.blog/blog/the-slow-death-of-the-power-user/
