It doesn't necessarily roll off the tongue, but that's a good thing. It seems to be catching on, and frankly those large companies and orgs that are enshittifying and get labeled thusly might actually not love being called out with it, and hopefully slow their roll.

Doubtful, but a man can dream.

I used to work at S***ify... which is currently enshittifying at top-speed. It fits.

Feels on that, I know it's not a one liner. I suppose I asked here because I was looking for a possible open source/community made solution (several devs working on and refining it collectively). As it happens one of the other commenters linked to pretty much this type of solution i.e. Haven which looks dope AF and I'm a take it for a spin shortly.

Idk... Lots of devs I work with write software for mobile devices all the time. I could've worded it better I guess: I'm not a dev. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

Read the article. So they're basically saying "Hey all you folk who were previously renting out illegal basement suites while we did nothing about them (to protect you, or your tenants) and looked the other way! We're now agreeing to put you on paper so long as you're not too rich, and you're not listing them as STRs! Good news everybody!"

So the richest investment property class can keep listing their apartments and condos on AirBnB while everyone looks the other way. But a "below market value" basement suite must have a "self-contained bathroom and kitchen" while the other (poor) owners "must be living in the primary residence", and can't "make too much money or they don't qualify".

So poor people can rent out their basement (already happening) while rich people can buy up whole blocks to list as short-term (ditto).

Nice.

Got it. Business as usual.
