From Subsurface page:
Linux makes it much harder to offer binaries given the vast number of distributions with different mechanisms for making packages available. The Subsurface developers are trying to make packages available for the most popular distributions (and in the most popular formats):
By the way, Subsurface does not use or recommend flatpaks.

Luckily, Captain Obvious is here for you!
There's absolutely no reason why a company whose main (only) business is the development of a cross platform application framework should hire people to work exclusively on one OS's graphics stack. That doesn't rule out that some of its developers could contribute to other projects, but it's definitely not their job.
Their work sits on top of said graphics stack. In this context they're users not developers.
I was answering because someone was impling that while RH is "killing it" and hiring people, tQtC is missing in action, which is clearly not the case.
Also tQtC is 40 times smaller than RH, and I'm not even considering IBM, so any comparison seems a little off
