And as a dev, I make none of those decisions.

Also as a dev, I don’t really care. It’s not my money on the line, it’s the companies. If the site sucks and users don’t like it, the company loses profits and they will be forced to change.
The only thing I take a stand on is when the product is actively harmful and immoral. Just being shit or slow is not my problem.

Trouble is that your users are generally in a similar situation, not getting to choose what tools they use. By producing bad software, you’re making their life harder personally.
As a dev, I don't produce bad software.
Users of the features we develop are the ones that produce bad websites.

I agree. The few times I've cared fell on deaf ears.

Dangerously based response, Gigachad.
