Except a lot of it doesn’t fit because tons of it is predatory trash sold as functional when one or two things can go wrong and ruin everything.

It’s hard to expect the layman to need something technical, not know enough technically to do it themselves, but have enough surface knowledge to not get ripped off. It’s like threading a needle of the perfect level of wisdom.

Like I’d wager the common every dude would look for a connected hard drive, maybe Western Digital because of the market saturation, but there’s just so much garbage online that half works.

Then there’s interconnectivity issues, software not being available cross-platform after already spending hundreds on hardware, Apple problems.

The average user is just set and ready to be ripped off at like, all angles.
