I hear you, but me get this straight:
Windows fleeced you out of a technology they were supposed to support for the years to come, but you're still gonna snide Linux and stay with Windows? Lol.
Well, unless this is an offer to buy me a replacement Quest or Pico (all of which, work on Linux) "yes, I'm going to stay with Windows 10" (and/or maybe dual boot).
Developers decide what platforms they want to support based on what resources they have available and the kinds of users they wish to target. They create versions of software where they expect to garner enough market share or based on what gives them the most return on investment. Even at a 4% market share, Linux is still pretty much an edge case for many companies, though I agree that a corporation like Samsung can absolutely afford to make their software available on Linux
