Are Users taking over crypto Devs?

Hey guys, we as a people have become accustom to the idea that only the marketers get something out of the sales of products and services. For example, Google ad, admob, Facebook ad, Twitter, Instagram etc... see users as product they sell for ads money! Recently though, there have been some key incidents that have lead me to believe that there is a push back...

Literally one of the project's that comes to mind is Push project then more recently EtherMail allowing users to earn from ads emails and engagement. Yesterday I also came across Cookie3 MarketingFi protocol which I believe is doing something similar!

They seem to be rewarding users for their engagement and contributions to projects by leveraging AI and blockchain to create a transparent and efficient marketing ecosystem using their $COOKIE token.

There seems to be a paradigm shift from the traditional approach which has led me to the question... Are developers listening more and hence developing user centric projects? Or... Users who have become developers are building projects based on their pain points?

I couldn't imagine companies generosity fueling this?

Crypto is evolving and creating real life utilities to drive adoption has been what blockchain was meant for. Atm we have not fully utilized the potential of blockchain and this Cookie is just an iota of what we can do with blockchain tech.
I never knew about the project until i saw trending on X yesterday. I look forward to see how it performs but it's availability on many top exchange would encourage adoption
