Is (online) education is an attractive market? Before Covid, the answer was: Meh. Lot of competition, little funding in most countries. And Moodle (or Canvas) is a good enough solution, both also enable kind of third-party marketplaces. We looked at different LMS solutions and some better ones could best be described as "Moodle distributions", centered around a theme and some plugins.

Moodle seems like Joomla. The support forums are also full of posts by what seems like "the least bad IT person" in the education dept wondering how the hell this thing works, posting all kinds of confusing statements and code.

There's so many excellent SAAS platforms ... there should be something better than Moodle.
