Is anyone else disheartened by the lack of development for our device?

Just a discussion I've wanted to bring up for a while, I'm honestly disappointed in the lack of development for our device tree, the Xiaomi Mi 10 series. I feel thanks to Xiaomi overly saturating the smartphone market with a strategy similar to BKK Electronics, we as consumers have suffered the most from this practice. It does is not beneficial having dozens of similar devices, budget phones to midrange phones to top tier models such as ours with small changes or new gimmicks that leave consumers confused on what model to purchase. I wish Xiaomi had more timed releases such as Samsung or OnePlus, where we can see lots of development for OnePlus due to its open nature, but instead they found they are likely making more money or shipping out more product by flooding the market with a new model every few weeks. I'm bummed out because our phone has been out now since February, and we still do not have a custom ROM... had there been less competition from Xiaomi itself, we likely would have seen more developers purchase the Mi 10 series. What do you guys think about all this? Will someone fulfill the prophecy of producing our first ROM in the near future?

If you're disappointed have you thought about learning and developing a ROM yourself?

You shouldn't be disappointed about something that people give up there free time to do.

More popular devices will always get more attention.

They will come when ready
