Yes, this is a trend I've been commenting on for...well it seems like a very long time.
It's clearly enshittification in nearly every single case; the more clueless johnny-come-lately tech-trendsters want to label me as just being old-fashioned or something when I bring it up. Trying to explain to them what is going on is usually a pointless exercise, as they have been steeped in a new==better mindset that is nearly ironclad and since they didn't use reason to get themselves into that position, but instead, emotion, trying to reason them out of it is not going to happen...
And they get bombarded by app developers and consultants telling them they MUST have an app or all these bad things will happen to them.
