While this is tangently related to your point, with the extremization of data mining as the core of online experiences, I am moderately disappointed by how the pandemic turned most major tech companies even further to increase the addiction (reads "engagement") of users in their business models, explicitly aiming to replacing real-life experiences and maximizing screen time.

All of this, agreed, while the "web3" appearing everywhere does not particularly help to take this market and the competence of most long-time leaders seriously any longer.
