The age of "programmer tyranny", as you call it, was over long ago. Product manager tyranny has been the de facto regime in Big Tech for years. That's how we ended up with subscription models everywhere, enshittification, and infinite data tracking. Imagine that x1000. That's where we're heading, IMO.
The current biggest problem is reputation and QA. Ie I see hundreds of same kind of apps when I search for open source stuff on F-Droid, but I can't really say whether it was properly audited with current influx of vibe-coded stuff, whether it contains malware, is it fully vibe-coded or human evaluated the result, etc. which one of those hundreds is actually good?
When we solve the slop recognition problem, we can actually see a positive turn from enshittification, because copying products overnight without spyware became almost trivial.
