Better products doesn't always equal more profit, which is all a company cares about
Behold the power of making a product for users instead of advertisers.
Better still for the business to make a product that people use!
Well the user is the product. Considering it human would interfere with the bottom line.
Being "a user of your own product" is a cheap proxy for caring about quality.
You seem more interested in having ownership of the product and receiving credit/money than producing a quality product.
Everybody's product brings value. But only some products bring value to the customers. ;)
Don't blame the user for poor product decisions.
