Exactly idle. And also exactly why linux can never grow. Because this is the bottomline, "don't like it - write it yourself".
I don't want to write it myself. I could well pay for the ready product thou. I am a computer user. It's like music, I like to listen to it but can't play it myself.
I understand what you mean, but you're making it sound as if the "linux people" (doesn't have to be linux though) do it like this on purpose. Which is not true, only it's a lot of hard, mostly unpaid work and there's always something that hasn't been done yet. As with any other software, you can 1) take it or 2) leave it, your choice. Improving it is only an additional third option that's available here.
