Agree with all your points. Couldn't be express it better myself. Just recently I tried to access reddit from my phone while being logged out, and got a "community preview, view this in app" kind of screen. Terrible. On a similar note, Github is slowly auth-walling off parts of its website. I can't access github actions logs on my phone, nor can I access "hidden" outdated etc. comments/discussions without an account, even though I'd like to view what is inside.
For the real time chat space, my personal hope is that Matrix will eventually take off. Currently it is still in a phase where there is lots of development and technological improvements, but I hope that eventually there will be an ecosystem of compliant clients as well as a large user base. Another good alternative to matrix is zulip, although it's hard to maintain which discussions one wants to stay up to date with vs which discussions to ignore.
