Why is there no teletext?

Why is there no teletext? Google and Yandex did not give answers (they write that there are millions of answers, but they blatantly lie).
Additive.
Actually, I had such an assumption. In the analog signal, the right and bottom edges of the image were not displayed due to the reverse path of the beam (in kinescopes), so television companies began to transmit text in these places. Now there are no kinescopes, monitors are capable of displaying all pixels (of course, not everything is so primitive, because the format (encoding) changes, and the sound is additionally transmitted too). Apparently, the TV people switched to another format.

I suspect that it is connected with the transition to digital broadcasting. The wiki says

Teletexts of the channels of the First Multiplex will disappear from June 3, 2019 at 11:45 Moscow time, but only with closed captions for some programs.

With the development of the Internet, not only teletext, television itself has lost its relevance. It continues to be used only by conservative people who are not accustomed to flexibly manage the flow of information and filter it efficiently.
Answering the question, I can say that the reason is somewhere with you. Here one can only guess. Either the content provider turned it off, or you bought a new TV, or television centers generally switch to digital broadcasting, or something else. Without details of what was, what has become, and what has changed, it is rather difficult to even put forward hypotheses. What kind of TV, what kind of provider, where do you live, how do you catch, etc. etc. Did you seriously think that there were only telepaths here? But even if you tell in detail, the answer will be approximately the same as in the first paragraph, because teletext is no longer interesting to anyone.
