Define "independent developers". Because a lot of them do use Xamarin.

A lot of people are vocal about the price, use it or not; you can't pretend it's not true.

It's a pretty common trend for people to complain about prices period though on hn (I've seen people people complain about Intellij and it's pretty reasonable IMHO).

However, I do think their asking price for the edition that lets you use Visual Studio is a bit steep (I also pay for it, but still think it's kind of high).
