Mainstream distro users/contributors were too busy arguing that Debian is better than Slackware, Arch is better than Debian, Ubuntu is for noobs and now NixOS (whatever that is) reigns supreme. All that reduced the UX of these distros to the lowest common denominator, with varying degrees of skill requirements to get the thing working.
What if everything people wanted was a riced Arch/Ubuntu distro that was trivial to install on pretty much anything and not a lecture on how non-free drivers/software can't be included, leaving your machine unable to connect to the internet?
