Note: I might just be uneducated on the subject.

When I read about web3 with blockchains, smart contracts and dapps, all sounds very promising. But once you look for any real world applications it is just some obscure things that kind of only exist to support the decentralized system. I guess that makes sense, but are there any actual real world uses for that? Like day-to-day things that make a persons life easier, not harder?

The idea that it's technology centralising the web and not capitalism is laughable.

Yeah this is probably the crux. It tries to fix a problem of capitalism with more capitalism.
