Furthermore, you can still make a healthy amount by finding your niche. You just want to be the grandmaster crafter whom the peasants sell their kidney to buy from. When you could be making similar money or a little bit less by adapting and finding your niche. It's ok to adapt, you don't need a system rigged in your favor.
I think she's referring to the fact that there's now like 20-30 listings for something like the Aesthete gear where in the past you might have expected to see 5 tops. And their prices are laughably low because now you have a dozen people all undercutting each other because there aren't 20-30 people buying the gear on the MB. Impossible to profit from if you don't gather at least most of the materials yourself, which can be beyond tedious. A lot of the people crafting and selling that gear, if they aren't bots themselves, they absolutely employ gathering bots at the very least.
