Here's some deep context from someone who understands the situation. https://github.com/cmuratori/misc/blob/main/vulkan_dynamic_s...

Additionally yes, traction has been pretty weak too. It's still a wrapper on iOS/Mac and slower than DX12 on Windows. When you want something easy and crossplatform use OpenGL, and if you're really going to max out perf, then you use DX12 and Metal(which tbh might be easier than Vulkan too), so Vulkan's in a kinda awkward place.
