Instead, I can have fun playing with the most intresting platforms and devices that exist.
Harmattan will surely have an EOL at some point, isn't it obvious? Nokia dumped their Linux efforts. It's only a matter of time until they'll shut everything down and even stop selling N9s altogether. So it is essentially a dead platform already, which just still lingers in its last days.

If you don't do it for profit, then why not to work on some projects for Nemo and Sailfish or on porting more stuff to them? They'll greatly benefit from community contribution. Investing your effort in Harmattan does seem like a waste, if you consider its near future.
