Don't pay the cross platform price. Stop developing inferior software for your core users so that other people on other platforms can also have inferior software. It's not a good tradeoff, it's a bean-counter's tradeoff.
It's like going to a steak restaurant and finding they only sell lettuce so vegans can eat there, or going to a bar and finding they no longer sell alcohol because they're trying to appeal to tetotallers who don't like bars. It's like Ferrari putting a Honda Civic engine in to try and appeal to both sets of customers and the Honda customers don't want the six figure price tag and the Ferrari customers don't want a low power reliable 4-cylinder engine. It's the "one size fits nobody very well" of software, it's the abandonment of your core competency to appeal to people who hate you.
