Software that will one day stop being supported because people will only use FOSS apps. They won't contribute in terms of feedback (that helps improve User Experience and as a result improve the use of that app) or in terms of donation.

They will only use it and roam around with an air of superiority about using FOSS over proprietary.

This is why FOSS has issues. Gatekeepers who won't do shit to contribute, but only make fun of and call out people who actually do some shit.
