With NVidia I can just buy any random GPU and expect it to work for everything I throw at it (at long as it has enough VRAM). With AMD it's a roulette, and only a handful of very expensive server/workstation GPUs (8 in total if I'm counting it right) are actually officially supported. It's a joke.
They need to better support their own products, and they need to officially support all of their consumer GPUs to expand their mindshare. They're not doing that. From what I can see they only seem to be interested in the traditional HPC space.
I also think they're not interested. Either that or just simply incompetent.
For example, just look at this issue and see the huge mess:
