If you want to give value to users, why don't you just put more effort into improving the complexity of the applications that can be created easily? Now that the marketing part is taken care of, you can focus on quality

I assume it is because the users don't want more original apps. They want a template that is as close to push button as possible.

The second you give a "make-money-from-home" user "choices" and not just a "recipe", they will disappear because that's too much work.

I built a ton of tools in the early 2010s that targeted this same niche of customers (a.k.a. spammers).
