devs have to use it to hoist it to a platform that can accessed by others before users can use it, right? imo users don't typically use open source software, they use generated artifacts from an upstream development process representing the capabilities of the software. users don't "use grafana", they use the implementation of how you deploy it. it should be improved upon by responses from the users who use your implementation, but what you're saying suggests that efforts like architecting your software in ways that improve/maintain development standards or packaging your software in a dependency manager before delivering any level of user facing feature is a sad assumption to you. I don't think the concern of usability here takes the entire picture of a project into context.
