Devs follow the crowd, and its usually not the other way around unless theres a financial incentive (e.g valves position).
The easiest one is AI/ML. Devs could switch to linux and help make AMD better with open source drivers. Most of them continue to feed into the already existing CUDA network Nvidia created for devs. The major libraries for ML (e.g tensorflow) already have AMD backends, most devs just rather not do that work until its the mainstream.
