Well, at least they aren't outright throwing the functionality in the trash.

I've heard it's because creating/reforming things rather than maintaining them is more valued at Google with their current company culture.
A friend who worked at Meta said pretty concisely, "You get rewarded for coming up with something new, not improving something old."
Proving once again that it's usually management that tanks a company.... Yet they get the golden parachutes
That would make sense why there's more features than there used to be, but it's just worse in every way. Same as Google, Reddit, Microsoft, etc...
It's pretty common across most orgs really. Google just seems to have perfected it. Which might actually mean they'll kill it soon!
Their company culture sounds like shit. They should be more like Valve. Make a great thing and then forget it exists until it sucks just because it's too old.
This is America in general.
