Great analogy.
I think it’s fair to tweak it and leave that second library with full accountability for the lack of desirability.
Domain names don’t start out undesirable, they build their reputation from the content and users.

Isn’t project Gutenberg just for older classic books(not that there’s anything wrong with that)?
Oh, yes. I’m most cases, really old books.
Where do you get books for the Kindle if not at Amazon?
When I look for a specific book, I usually find that simply searching for "BOOK NAME purchase DRM free” results in plenty of results.

A manufacturer phone pre-installed with LineageOS would be awesome.
Jeff Bezos never smashed the window on my car to steal my speakers,
True.
he doesnt come out vandalising public transport or parks and he isnt the reason my wife doesnt feel safe walking around at night.
If we could even comprehend the scale of his unpaid taxes, or their impact on our parks, we might discuss this at length…
Movie theaters are really expensive, so I’m not paying attention to what Hollywood is making right now.
The surprisingly deep copy of Balatro in “Dave the Diver” is pretty good.
That sounds entirely reasonable.
