Is Simple Delivery mandatory now ? used to be able to select custom postage option but it’s not available now. Just tried listing and Simple Delivery is the only option for postage

I live a stressful life, I have to make my life simpler not over complicated I have matters I am required to focus, so sell a second hand items to clear space, must be simple and mindless, I get anxia when I send something and the outcome is uncertain, like when someone else mind about my stuff, if you want something done good, you have to make it youtself, cause nobody would care less, that's the truth, so sending by Simple Delivery does not help me, and equals to have to wait or send something by Evri, same bad experience I am happy to avoid again, so I just let my stuff sit there I sell it elsewhere, there is not only Ebay, and if I can't I just donate it, I don't leave any mess around if I am gone. Plus it might help someone the same.
It is just like Vinted now, same rubbish, which I hate and I refused to put all my items on there, I gave priority to sales here rather then them, now it is the same, I just avoid it.
I also have a huge problem as buyer, since I will never ask something to be delivered again to me by Evri, so I have to pay on Ebay more then when I buy elsewhere at the correct Royal Mail price, and Simple Delivery maybe is the reasons why I can't find anymore so many private sellers here in my search. I use the filter, and less and less stuff not from a shop appears, I wondered why, I guess this is the reason. I guess Ebay had its gold days, I was so happy when they passed the fee to the buyer, and i was happy to pay it when I was buying. But with Simple Delivery they sunked the second hand market. I am here since 2009 and I never was bothered too much from their changes, now I don't see anymore why my friends should come here first. I also doubt I could be a business someday, so I just find another platform, after this mess, the first one offering me freedom to post it has my stuff on it. They just could leave the choice to the sellers.
