    You are right, but also this comes with the territory of doing what many people like to to and many would even do for free.

    It’s the same with many other types of jobs that people do not strictly only for the money.

    Art is the same. People form bands and release music for fun, hence those who want to earn money there are undercut by those who just do it for fun. Only a few top artists can utilize massive economies of scale to actually make a decent living.

    Game developers are the software developers who earn the least, by far. Because everyone would prefer making a cool game over writing some b2b web app.
