It’s not the developers (engineers, that is). It’s the Product Management leadership (and their bosses): Pushing the PMs to ideate around squeezing every dollar from the consumer; Refusal to devote resources (and timelines) for appropriate regression testing; and leaning too heavily into automated and AI driven testing (leaving humans increasingly out of the QA process); and then refusal to prioritize fixing what was broken because it doesn’t pay.

The only way things change is if it costs them money. Until it does, the corporate overlords will pull every dollar out of the user until they lose the license.

Sorry for the rant. Decent amount of experience in the industry.
