I have to use a secure gov database for work. Ten years ago to enter some data it took 30 mins. Now the same data upload takes 4 hours, and at the end there are sections that I abandon out of frustration. The data has not changed, but the database is now partitioned off into what seems like endless sections. Progress.

Amazon is useful for Scottish residents saving cash on booze. 

1L bottle 41.3 gin Amazon £22.50. In Scotland £26.20 minimum price in the supermarket.

 That's not enshittification, that's just putting your local off-license out of business.

Can anyone suggest a good weather app now that the Met Office has truly and completely enshittified their app

WeatherPro? When I first got an iPhone, and Apple set up the App Store, I tried a bunch of different weather apps, including the Met Office one, and it was garbage back then, but I tried WeatherPro and it worked really well, but to get hourly updates you had to subscribe. 
I stuck with it until Apple bought Dark Skies and incorporated the best bits into the Weather App, which gives me everything that WeatherPro did, but for free. YMMV 🤷🏼‍♂️
