But there is supply, at the correct market price. At the end things will get translated. Maybe disposable stuff won't, but things like Streaming will. And for any price the translator sets, as long as translators refuse to work for peanuts.
The problem here is one company wanting to increase their profits by reducing what they pay for translations, plain and simple.
There is also a massive shortage of new developers. You heard it from me: I'm paying 30k/year on Palo Alto, but nobody wants to work. Lazy bastards!
On a serious note, I've seen something similar happening with copywriting in the past, having worked in a couple "Uber-but-for-copywriting" companies. Copywriters would get about 2x, 3x what they can get now, but due to freelancing work opening up to amateur copywriters, the price and quality was pushed down until the internet became the SEO cesspit it is today and experienced professionals had to either accept or quit the internet copywriting market. It's a race to the bottom.
