Because of centralization, open source exploitation by multi billion dollar corporations, high costs of living and overall size and impact of the industry. When industry was small full of developers it was more cozy, now developers are minority in IT industry so the practices from different areas take place. Instead of collaboration and helping each other we see people mostly competing and fighting. Managers that were brought to software from different areas are encouraging people to do so. Everyone is complaining but nobody is willing to help to change something because corporate make profit, C-Levels earn hundreds of millions and shareholders are happy.
