Over the past 20 years, Talenti has changed from a small, independent brand to a piece of a corporate conglomerate. Has that affected its quality?

    What Happened to Talenti?

    Unilever, they are a company which makes soap. Anything they make, they make an effort to taste more like soap. The ice cream brands they bought up were no exception.

      Came to ask wtf is Talenti but it sounds like it was an ice cream brand. Thanks for the post, it saved me a click.

        It still is. It’s the brand I glance over to find something better even though I’ve never tried it. It just looks pretentious, and I don’t need that in my freezer.

    It was pretty tasty stuff back in the day, but I was never much of a “premium brand” person.

What is enshittification?

The phenomenon of online platforms gradually degrading the quality of their services, often by promoting advertisements and sponsored content, in order to increase profits. (Cory Doctorow, 2022, extracted from Wikitionary) source

The lifecycle of Big Internet

We discuss how predatory big tech platforms live and die by luring people in and then decaying for profit.

Embrace, extend and extinguish

We also discuss how naturally open technologies like the Fediverse can be susceptible to corporate takeovers, rugpulls and subsequent enshittification.
