I was at the ADS event (and made a semi-successful floor nomination in one of the ad hoc categories!) and feel like "enshittification" was sort of a "silent majority" winner - a lot of people came up and voiced support for "(derogatory)," which I think would have been a weak WOTY, as would any Twitterism in the year Twitter finally became irrelevant.
Thankfully Gretchen McCulloch was there to lay down the law and speak to enshittification's goodness! (In a linguistic sense.)

Standing in a cold bay would certainly incite me to kvetch!
