I loved the Amiga, but it was basically dead by 1995. Commodore had gone bankrupt, the hardware had stagnated for years, and it was impossible to add modern features like memory protection to the OS.

Memory protection was there on the last models, with the 68030.
For example with a Cobra expansion card, https://amiga.resource.cx/exp/cobra
The CPU was capable, Amiga OS wasn't.
There were utilities to enable it, like Enforcer with 68030.library.
It only protected the first page. It was not a general solution.
