Alluring, an annoying property of private software development is that making websites and software in general inaccessible to lower end hardware is actually a positive effect, as it filters out 'undesirable' lower-income prospects.

That, along with pressure to produce fast, without much concern for quality (with notable privileged exceptions of luxury software like Apple or 1B+ user software like Google), as well as a disregard for sourcing "I don't care if you do it yourself, or npm install software from effectively unpaid volunteers", ends up in a state of software lacking craftmanship, software that one is not proud of to work in.

The best way to filter out unwanted users is to make them install software that just displays a webview of what could have been a completely open web page. That way, you only get the ones you can track, which is more important than their wealth, as poor customers often end up spending more on commodity items than someone who is wealthy.

In my experience, Apple and Google are the worst offenders at software bloat, maybe because they can afford to create releases every few weeks, so the bloat accumulates faster.
