The early days were actually great. People renting out spare rooms for cheap was a win/win, but of course "entrepreneurs" had to turn that into a side business and AirBnB had to maximise profits so it all went to shit.
It's interesting how the newer ones are more valued. Piracy isn't even on there anymore. 🧓
Holy shit, I love this!
I think about it once a month
Once again, Late Stage Capitalism in the root problem in all enshittification of an otherwise innocent and slightly innovative idea.
It’s so funny because that’s exactly how capitalism ruins great ideas. I’m actually proud to have never used AirBnB, but when it first came out, it was probably a great way to save vs hotels that were overpriced and have massive overhead anyway.
Sure, they were...but Airbnb is now so old Trump wouldn't try to fuck it, so why are people still giving them money?
