Remember when Instagram was just about pretty pictures?

And when LinkedIn was less about AI-fuelled 'thought leadership' and fake jobs?

These channels are all great examples of #PlatformDecay" (aka #enshittification), a natural consequence of #PlatformCapitalism.

Without knowing how eager students would be to publish to these platforms, I designed the course, "Digital Platforms for Publishing," to encourage emerging writers to look more critically at what they see as catch-free services. #platformcapitalism #datasovereignty #publishing #studentwriting #uwgb

Not going to lie, I specifically went with Unbound as I wanted an infertility book in bookshops and that you didn’t have to send off an SAE for, then couldn’t find it in stores anyway and now face selling my books myself. I feel quite stupid right now. www.theguardian.com/books/2025/m...
Authors await overdue payments as publisher Unbound goes into administration
The company, launched in 2011, has been acquired by new company Boundless, after writers have been left unpaid for months
