I'm sure there's more to it than this, but I think that a bit of unfortunate timing may have contributed to Quibi's demise. This may have had a chance in the pre-lockdown world when everyone was rushing around, and had a few short moments of boredom in between.

With most people no longer commuting and most forms of entertainment and recreation closed, a lot of people have fewer things competing for their time. I think many people are now spending their time on things that use up longer chunks of time: watching TV or movies, going outside, and hobbies.
