Seems like many companies product quality has plummeted over the last few years. For example, Google (despite its flaws), used to have good products and services. Now they are virtually unusable.
My doctor sent me forms to my Gmail and I never got them. I looked it up and apparently Gmail has the document provider blocked so you literally cannot get medical forms. Stuff like this happens all the time now! Their search engine is nothing but sponsored ads now.
This is just the tip of the iceberg. I just think it’s funny that capitalism ends up making much much worse products over time.
i’ve noticed my spronges for dishwashing have less antibacterial stuff in them, so they get mildewy like, 5-10x faster now. i think it’s part of the shrinkflation we’ve all been experiencing in the west: not only have prices been getting higher, but amounts and quality have been going down.
It’s not just the west, for the record
Dish washing protip: get one of those stainless sponge cages that suction cups to the inside of ur kitchen sink. I use the same shitty store brand sponges for months with no mildew bc they always have a chance to drain and dry.
thank you for the tip!!! i will definitely try that, having stinky sponges kind of defeats the purpose lol
