Why should I be bothered about the mainstream? Why should I applaud
moves that focus improving software only on non-free systems? There
is absolutely nothing for me in that.
I have nothing to gain from my software being useful only to
mainstream users of proprietary systems, and so I certainly not at all
"had better" do anything in order to have people working on stuff that
is of no benefit for me.

If you want to place demands on software developers, you better offer
some recompensation. Other than that, you get what they are in the
mood to deliver.

Feel free to do so.
