A lot of Latin American people see themselves as white and would get very offended if you suggest otherwise
Edit: Sorry I had no idea latinx was offensive

Two reasons:
- Lemmy admins aren't accountable to investors or shareholders so there's no pressure to make things worse.
- If enhsittification happens on any instance. Like it's owned by a cooperation. Then other instances can block it/defederate, or users can move to another instance
If it's based on Debian then 90% of guides online will work with it anyway
The core problem is education and bad UX. People are taught how to do specific things (click here, type this word, press this button) without ever being told why. And the bad UX discourages exploration of different ways of doing things. So it never occurs to them that there might be a better way.
Personally, I think it's ok for people to not have a deep understanding of their computer, but if you use one for hours every day, it makes sense that you know how to use it. Just like I don't expect a driver to know how to take apart an engine but they should know how to change a flat or put in coolant.
If you don't want Google to see what you're doing then don't use Google products
I had the exact same experience. Didn't even know it was so disliked at the time
