Why don't more developers "use the platform"?

The article discusses the low adoption rate of a specific platform among developers, citing a survey conducted by Hacker News. The survey found that only 10% of respondents use the platform, with 70% of those users having used it for less than 6 months. The author suggests several reasons for the low adoption rate, including the platform's complexity, lack of documentation, and concerns about data ownership. The author also notes that the platform's popularity is limited to a small group of power users who dominate the platform's community.
