I think the quality isn't there as often with published works as it had been, but I do think that all writers should still try to get published. Doing the submissions and trying to make it, I think would really push you to be better and stronger. Then when you reach a certain point, maybe look at going independent.
I feel like what publishers can provide, the teams of professionals, can't be easily replaced. However I think that most of them need to raise up and be better because they've slacked for too long. Especially in terms of editing and design work.
I support independent publishing more-so in theory and don't think it's quite there yet, and as long as it isn't vanity publishing.
