Oh, come on. About 90 million people listened to everyone and their (non-conservative) mother say how this might be the most important election, Trump won't give up his power, they're going to enact Project 2025, it'll be nothing but a revenge tour, they're fascists, a second Trump administration is an existential threat to this country, Trump is compromised, this administration will end American democracy, the people who stood in his way last time aren't around any more, etc... 90 million people heard this... then still chose to stay home and let this happen. I'm sorry Biden/Harris didn't sweep us off our feet, but we deserve this. Don't you dare say we "tried" voting against it.
If Did Not Vote had been a candidate:

The voting in the US is literally predetermined during redistricting and as real as the outcome of Wrestlemania so not sure what you're talking about
You can't redistrict the electoral college.
Districts still matter when it comes to voter suppression measures. Less polling stations, requiring voters vote only in their district, purging voters, etc.
You sort of can by adding new states, which has been done before, splitting existing states into 2 to get more senators and electoral college votes. It is harder to keep this hidden though.
