Sure, it's not just black and white ;). I made good experiences with
several hardware vendors. They were interested in the issues I
experience(d) with my hardware, when using it with Linux. E.g. Western
Digital and RME seriously were interested what issues I experience and
they were interested to help me, if possible.

However, a lot of companies for proprietary software and/or hardware
ignore customers.
