The idea is to get people into your walled garden and then milk them for everything it’s worth. Roblox does a good job gaming wise… kids spend hours playing many different games but never leave Roblox. So the hunt for the solution that can improve on this, is on. If you can get people to order their groceries from within your walled garden and take a cut… you’re golden.
For sure… but this is like chasing the dream. And in china they have an everything app… so … they keep pooring billions into these bottemless pits.
Edit: I also think most people don’t trust corporations to get them the best deal. So if you ask Amazon to get you product X … they will fuck you on price.

That’s what Amazon tried with Alexa, and they still can’t figure out how to make it profitable.
