Lack of development

Are you speaking about custom ROM?
If yes it is simply because Huawei doesn't release any source code and it is hard to unlock bootloader etc so obviously it is really hard for developers to do something with that....

thats the main reason for me to leave huawei.
I never understand folks who buy Huawei products expecting rom development. Huawei made their stand awhile ago.
It's simple stuff. Buy pixel, OnePlus, xiaomi etc if you want amazing dev support.
Why people want to use custom ROM on an amazing phone and limit themselves from using most banking apps?
Well you don't limit yourself if you use proper tools like magisk hide
People that want to customise a rom, or even know what is a ROM is potentially maybe, if I am generous, 0.1% of the potential phone market.
Huawei has the best stance, business wise. Why waste time and ressources to release codes for a minority of people that will barely impact your bottom line.
Despite the US ban this year, they are growing 24%, so my guess is they are fairly happy with their current situation, and won't miss 2-3 nerds on XDA wanting to change their phone from the inside out.

Though there are no threads about them here, there is official TWRP and official Lineage OS 16. HTH
(Sorry, please just ignore this mistaken post.) (I was confused and not awake enough to critique my poor thinking.)
Big thank you to @ChongoDroid for quickly correcting this. Cheers
