Comes with the territory considering that npm is defacto the number one enshittification dependency by now. But no worries - this will scale beautifully.

downvotes appreciated but also happy to see one or two urls that would prove me wrong



In the spirit of a substantive discussion could you likewise share a couple that would prove you right?


First of all I have a theory that nothing can be proven but I can't prove it.

Second - an example for a javascript heavy npm utilizing tracking heavy / low content site has not much weight in proving me right - my view is an assumption - 2 examples of shitty tracking SEO AI garbage content blubber sites not using npm would substantially question my assumption... I am genuinely interested in the tech those sites would use instead.


If you have such a theory, how does it make sense to ask others to do the impossible and prove anything???


thats a fortune cookie - please stay on topic :)


I think the downvotes are because enshittification is a different thing, intentionally done by the developers themselves.


granted but the motivation is payment I think and that originates elsewhere.
