It's true that development takes skill, time, and effort, but there are many rewards which are not monetary.
I don't "expect" a dev to put themselves into poverty maintaining an app that I feel like I deserve. But if there are apps maintained by devs as a hobby or whatever and are opensource then naturally those will be my preference.
