Some article says it's even faster than ethereum or litecoin. I think TPS is the least concern of someone who want to make anonymous payments. I also don't think monero will be as popular as other mainstream coins like bitcoin or ethereum but there will always be a strong demand for it and that will increase as regulation tightens.
Maybe you think that anonymous users don't care about TPS. But I think it is important for development.
There is also that monero is not very friendly to miners, leading to the loss of important customers. Although the market value is large. Probably no longer welcomed by new investors, they may turn to new, low-market anonymous coins. For example, the deeponion that has risen in the past two years. After the release of deepsend, anonymity works well. I think there is a lot of space
I never said they don't care. Of course they still do but what's probably more important to them is the level of anonymity a certain coin gave provide for their transactions.

Monero did lose miners from their latest upgrade (read ALTCOINSMonero loses ‘quarter of miners’ as network sees successful shift to RandomX) but that number might grow again.

[…] just before the fork, there are about 40,000 unique mining addresses. And right now, we’re at about 27,000-28,000 . So, we’ve lost about a quarter of miners from the upgrade. Now, that number is still slowly increasing, so, that probably means a large number that we’ve lost just didn’t upgrade in time.

I don't know about Deepoinion, I read some people saying it's a scam coin but that's irrelevant to the discussion. Surely, there will be competitions and users can choose which anonymous coin they prefer.
