      I bet you plenty of people absolutely do want this.

      Most people can barely use a computer and would love this if it worked well.

      You forget a huge percentage of users can barely access their emails.

      Lemmy is very techcentric and most users on here are far from the average consumer on technical literacy.

      You just aren’t the target audience.

      They are monopolists/oligopolists, operating like a cartel.

      They create new paradigms as they please, because there is no alternative.

      Consumer preferences don’t mean dick in a highly uncompetetive market with absurd costs to entry.

      Because it is. That’s why it is called enshittification.

      Shareholders are the customers now. People are livestock to be milked dry, worked to the bone, and chopped up and served to corporations.
