Why aren't your new products compatible with POSER? I bought so much Daz product the past few years, spent so much money, now that has stopped. PLEASE make all your new stuff compatible with POSER again!

Who in particular? Published Artists or DAZ? There have been a lot of releases this year that are at least nominally compatible because they are for Genesis 2 which is supported via the DSON Importer plugin
Put plainly because the poser versions didn't sell enough to cover the PAs time to do it, This has been beaten to death many times. When the sales dropped so did the support. Maybe with the influx of Artists from RDNA you may see an uptick on it, but there are several PAs here who outright said they arent supporting it anymore.
The only thing truly locked out (until recently) was the Genesis 3 models and that was SMs CHOICE not Daz's. They didnt want to make the plug in to allow them to work correctly in Poser.
There are several PAs that still support Poser. There is compatibility with some products through the use of the DSON importer plugin, as noted. And, yes, several of the RDNA artist have worked and will hopefully continue to do Poser products.
For some PAs, the issue is not enough Poser sales to justify the amount of time needed to support two platforms. However, for others, there are compatibility problems, and for some, they have never owned or know how to use Poser, so it isn't necessarily so simple to say why a PA does or doesn't do Poser products.
