Not every system is broken.
Some are just working exactly as intended — but not for the person using them.
In this episode of Side Page, we calmly unpack three everyday systems that quietly frustrate millions:
💸 Why budgeting apps confuse more than they help
🏠 Why rent rises while wages stay flat
🍪 Why cookie popups don’t actually protect your privacy
These aren’t rants.
They’re quiet explorations of how modern systems are built — and who they actually serve.
If you’ve ever asked, “Why is this still a thing?”
This episode is for you.
