I disagree with this take. As a developer, UX is your responsibility, core part of the job description.

The key is UX for who exactly.

When you're the only developer working on something, the next users in the critical path are other developers/contributors, not normies.

Also important to acknowledge your weaknesses. For example, Linus Torvolds isn't great at UI. If that's what he focused on (rather than function) Linux wouldn't exist.
