They aren't affected badly enough yet. Plus, there are still immigrants around to blame. Just wait, "immigrants set the fire" will happen.

Google APIs are terrible to work with, but Microsoft is way worse in my experience. An API for one product may have been worked on by multiple teams that each had a different idea of how it should work.
I guess you're not an opensource developer. Let me put it in terms that you understand:
Let's say you're a pizza delivery dude. You have to be out every day, delivering people to rude customers, no matter the weather. It's hot and your balls are sweating off, if cold and your fingers are freezing, there torrential rain and you get soaked for every delivery, but bossman don't care - you have to do it!
To relax, you have a hobby as a wood worker. It's your passion! You make small things to make life a little easier or things that look cool to you.
One day, you buy a cupboard that's been all the rage. Every store out there has it and it's flying off the shelves. But after a few months there's something annoying about the way it works. Not a problem for you, the handyman, the woodworker. It takes a few weeks, but you've designed, built, and tested a few solutions to arrive at something that works. It's not beautiful, it's not trendy, sexy or anything, it just works.
Thinking to yourself "hey somebody else might find this useful", you put the designs online. To your delight, there are a few people using it. Very few "thank you"s, but that's fine, at least it helped somebody.
Then one day, some dude writes a comment about your solution titled "Build something beautiful or GTFO".
Tell me, how would that make you, as the hobby wood worker feel?
Think of the question more as "person over there who is a scientist using twitter, why do you still use twitter?" and "group of people who are scientists, what are the myriad reasons you as individuals use twitter?" --> X% because of Y, A% because of B
the question is more in the vein of "why do you as a scientist still use twitter?", not "hey amorphous blob consisting of all scientists with a hive mind, tell me why you still use twitter". If you're a scientist and use twitter, why do you? And if you know scientists who do, why do they?
https://linuxpreloaded.com/ has a lot of linux compatible laptop-vendors.
Dunno where you are, so can't recommend a specific laptop. Guessing from your currency I'd guess NA and looking at linux-preloaded, boy are there few options from non-oligopoly vendors in NA :/ And what the fuck are those prices in NA? Laptops with 16GB for 3kCAD? Bruh.
You might have to shell out money to a corp that cares little for linux. Maybe these guys have a good list of affordable laptops https://laptopmountain.com/collections/linux
Airsupport is what the offensive is missing, isn't it? Ukraine is already making small gains, so let's hope this will turn that into bigger gains.
Slava Ukraini.
No future
Same argument for fruit based products.
Why isn't this video uploaded to peertube instead of some dude's personal bog?
How is matrix not usable?
That's a valid opinion. It's yours. I disagree with your phrasing however. "GUI or GTFO" is not a nice way to present your case.
Also, it's mostly their free time. They get to choose what they do with it. If they decide writing a window effect would be cool in brain fuck, because why the hell not, it's completely up to them. They have no obligation to dedicate their free time to anything anybody else wants, so telling them off is at least disrespectful and at most a reason for them to stop.
The main developer of a popular rust framework (actix) was bullied enough that he quit and only when he quit did a bunch of people come out of the woodwork to support him - not before.
