True, but almost all of the people don't really need a smartwatch :)

Never bought a smartwatch, even when I was in love with the Pebble. I hate having to charge it every day. I don't need notifications on my wrist.

I have a Casio that has a 10 years battery and dual timezone I need when I travel and a TAG Heuer when I need a "better looking" watch.

I don't need to track steps or trainings. Even when I did it was with stupid gadgets like early fitbit bands without displays.

When I will need something that will alert people when I fall (in many years from now, hopefully) I will use a specialized device.

That page is not replicable. Probably 100+ devs tried. It was a one hit wonder :D

p.s. Who the hell cares of NFTs in 2026?
