Developers are also users, usually some of the more advanced users, important early adopters and power users. Remember non-developers saying they would never get Facebook, or an iPhone, or bitcoin, or Snapchat, or TikTok... and then Road to Damascusing into evangelists? Developers tried all of those out first, with many seeing the problematic social mechanics and rejecting them early, instead of running the hamster wheel to enrich others and centralize power in furtherance of one's own greed.

If enough developers give up on the proprietary OSs and just run Linux, which is basically actually doable now, the tides will turn. Certainly unclear if developers will unify and go all in on Linux, of course, but given historical trends it looks quite likely.

Anecdotally, I've always been fine enough with Win and Mac since the '90s, fine with iOS and Android since the '00s/'10s. But something shifted last year, and while I will remain a user, I've mostly given up on actively developing/maintaining native or web apps targeting those platforms.
