Exactly. So it's weird to see a popular sentiment be Spotify laying off 1500 is bad corporate greed. But then celebrated wishful thinking that Boeing should die due to corporate greed and put 150,000 employees out of work which is somehow good.
It's not weird. A company laying off employees when they don't have to just to increase profits IS corporate greed.
A company dieing so that other companies that have (hopefully) not yet enshittified is not mutually exclusive with the above sentiment. Also, due to the relatively inflexible market demand, any other company taking over Boeing's market share would need to absorb most of their skilled labour.
So why don't you think the laid off Spotify employees will have an equally soft landing of just being absorbed into other companies?
Well it's not like any other company is getting Spotify's market share and needs to scale up their infrastructure
