How true is the dead internet theory, in your view?

I'll ask anyway. Why do companies like bots?

It's a built-in feature of internet groups that they are bad at producing messages and leaders for a wider audience. The dynamics of facebook groups and internet forums reward preaching to the choir and punishes compromises, both with opposition, moderates and reality.

You're right. The problem is not so much the concept as what happens when residential property can be turned into Hotels by installing an app.

I think going after short-term rentals is exactly what they should be doing. If they take bribes not to then that's a huge problem though.

The problem here is that you're competing with tourists sleeping four to a room and you just can't outbid them for apartments, even with high wages. The solution here is to set aside properties for resident locals so that they aren't forced to.

Salads and sandwiches should be served room temperature, never right out of the fridge cold

The main quesiton is what you want long term. If you want to eventually move in with a romantic partner, I would advice you to get used to independent living beforehand. Having to cook for and clean up after a partner who never learned to live without mommy and daddy is a huge turn-off for most people and can sour a relationship very fast. I would ask you these questions:

Do you cook dinner for the household at least every week?

Do you clean the kitchen yourself after cooking?

Do you do the grocery shopping for the household?

Do you often tidy up the pots and pans after meals (not just your own plates and cutlery)?

Are you the one who takes a walk around the house putting away stray plates, glasses & clothes and tidying up? Do you do this at least once a day?

When something breaks, are you often the one who repairs or replaces it?

Is it typically tidier & neater when your parents are away than when they are home?

If you want to live with a romantic partner in the future, and the answer to any of these is no, I suggest you have a long hard think about whether you're preparing for the life you want, or just staying where it's comfortable.
