I'd counter to say that maybe that works for you but it clearly doesn't work for everyone. We're getting maximum privacy at the cost of user experience and it's causing adoption to faulter.

We all agree that we're not seeing the wave of adoption we'd expect with such an important project. One reason for that may be the sacrifices we've made in the name of maximizing privacy.

Tari is a way to have both, maximum privacy and some compromises that will increase onboarding. All while increasing the XMR hash rate through merge-mining.

Personally, when I opened the link yesterday, I wondered if I was looking at a product for 4-year olds: Big round shapes, bright colors, ... and nothing that would give me a clue about what I am actually looking at.

I might simply not be in it, but who's the target audience here?

To be fair I don't think anyone here is the target audience. The target is the 99% of the world who aren't onboarded to crypto. Fluffy said it best when he described Tari as a "Trojan Horse". https://youtu.be/FSe8IXJO6nI https://youtu.be/zmeSSnppixY

We need something to get people into the space and we need it to be private by default.
