The editors of ResExcellence.com, a popular Macintosh website and longtime Mac enthusiasts, have switched to Linux. "I've been making my living as Mac-specific developer for several years now... I was a true Mac die-hard," stated Bryan, who also runs a Mac software company, on his blog, "but the Macintosh community, with its bad attitudes and diva-esque nature, rained on my parade. Sure there were other reasons why I switched. But that was the tipping point."

It's foolish to not care. As user you are directly affected by the system's design. A good design (clean API) means a more stable and faster system, and faster development (faster releases of new versions with improvements you want), while a bad design implies the opposite.
One can just as easily say that a system is nothing without its developers. Who would want to use a system that is unmaintained? If you think users > developers, then try killing off all the Linux developers and see what happens to Linux. Someone has to make the thing. To think that users are some kind of gods that must dominate over developers is just plain arrogance.
