    The damage has been done though, I doubt any developers will put their eggs in this basket after they’ve shown themselves willing to destroy all of their customers business models

      There are always developers who either don’t care, or are willing to compromise their values for some amount of cash.

      They’re not the kind of developers we want to work with, so maybe that sort of self-selection is useful.

      It’s not that simple but yeah if things keep going this way more people will keep moving away. The ones that remain are likely to get hyper focused on to keep the user base in the same way you have to increasingly cater to whales in a game after the community at large leaves
