Agreed, for those who are technically inclined. One could argue its why facebook and twitter exist. Was too difficult or expensive to make your own / host your data.

I am not advocating for web3. I am saying its some middle ground at a new shot to not give all your data to someone who says this will host your data for 'free' vs an easy (to be seen) way for my stuff to be hosted with some type of payment from me in exchange for someone not abusing it. I know that is a tall orders, but from what I have seen that is the pitch for web3.
