It is. Changing oil requires a place where you have sufficient access to the vehicle to drain it; the right equipment; the right disposal solutions. Most people who have cars do not have that. And it takes significantly more time to change your own oil than to have someone else do it as part of other specialist maintenance.
> Think of QR codes, people hardly used them for many years, because you needed to download an app for it, small step. It only started to catch up when you had it built in the camera app in most providers.
Exactly. Using a QR code app required specific knowledge of the app, an internet connection, some time, knowledge of how and when to use it, and something to use it with - the barrier of which surpassed the convenience gained from the QR code.

I'm struggling to find a non-contrived group of people who:
- do not know how to open and edit a file on their system
- do use npm
- would find installing pnpm or running `sudo install -d -m 0755 /etc/apt/keyrings; curl -fsSL https://depsguard.com/apt/gpg.key | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /etc/apt/keyrings/depsguard.gpg; echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/depsguard.gpg] https://depsguard.com/apt stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/depsguard.list >/dev/null; sudo apt update; sudo apt install depsguard` simpler
Of course, cooldowns.dev is a very long winded way of telling someone to run `npm config set min-release-age=3`, which is the simplest.
