Nice to see a cheap basic camera with a proper view-finder. That might
attract some customers. But those who want to 'share' instantly won't
be interested.

Kodak did make a success out of their old 'you press the button we do
the rest' box-camera service, so it's possible that niche still exists.

"its creators think they've found a way to bring better photography to the
masses"

How many of the masses can afford 1000 dollars per year on such a service, I
wonder

not a niche, and fulfilled by cellphone cameras, which can do quite a
bit more for those who want that, but not required.
