Yeah it would be really nice if the media could distinguish a bit better between “actual expert at thing X that has done it for a long time and gives a shit” versus “people/corporations that started with tons on money and think they could end up with slightly more by misleading fans of X and building the infrastructure to efficiently enshittify it”
edit to add: I was supposed to quip at the end of my post that oh yeah, the media and journalism are “products” that are no different, and in fact worse. Look at who owns the big outlets. gross.
