Curious on some replies here. I always hear having bees go extinct would be horrible for us. Curious if that’s the worse?

Along with the other good replies here I'll chuck in flies. They're the jack-of-all-trades-master-of-none in the insect world, sure, but they're the very bottom of sooooooo many food chains.

Plus we'd be buried in rotting material without them.
