Also, do people not pay for it because there are still so many free competing services?

If everything goes the way of ads and (for lack of a better term) enshittification, could consumer attitudes change?

There is a market for paid software services with a promise of not enshittifying. Kagi and Fastmail are two examples.

Now, this market probably isn’t going to put you in the Fortune 500, but is enough to run a profitable business.
