I have recently started a new position and am required to use an app that has three Facebook trackers, one of them being a Facebook location tracker according to Exodus App Privacy in order to get your food when it would literally work perfectly fine ordering to a real cashier or shit even a website rather than having to download an app.
I have also read many stories of people that live in apartments that require them to use a mobile app for god damn LAUNDRY. All you need, is a card reader, and it will work perfectly fine like it has been for the longest time.
Privacy concerns aside, it is just annoying that you need this app and that app and this app and that app and it just clutters space on your phone. Security concerns too as now they have all of this additional info on you online, such as your phone number your email your real name, instead of just your credit card info like a card reader would have. And I am willing to guarantee that their security model is absolute horseshit because they have such a small team of engineers working on the app and the servers.
Literal enshitification

No. The corporations have ruined the Internet
Smartphones is what gave them control. On the PC you can still filter most of the nonsense away. On smartphones the user is no longer in control and has to eat up whatever they get served.
Exactly why I don’t even bother with mobile games. That market feels so oversaturated with paywalls, scams, microtransactions and ads.
No, greedy people ruined the internet.
The internet ruined the internet.

Yes and
Both are responsible

Smartphones never were tools. They were from the start designed to remove control from the user and shift it to the apps and the manufacturers so they could feed you with ads and stuff.
