I wonder if the focus of this system can be shifted from corporate needs and applied to the needs of individuals who wish to organize and build tools seeking to de-enshittify platforms.
There are a great deal of platform features designed to atomize, isolate, and exploit individuals. Finding meaningful connection on platforms increasingly means navigating past the noise of antagonist individuals, overcoming profit extracting attacks on our attention, and endlessly doomscrolling until we find those ephemeral opportunities to genuinely connect.
I wonder if llms and browser automation tooling could help us build overlays that dynamically peel back the layers of enshitware that have been bolted on to our cybernetic perceptions of the world.
If you feel they can, and if you feel people with those aims are welcome in your community, and can find each other to collaborate, then I would be very interested in sending in PRs and helping you burn down backlogged items that benefit non-commercial de-enshittification use cases.
