"Letting people rant" and "listening to people's rant" is not the same thing. Besides, Jolla does not have to moderate TJC. They have a lot of minions doing their moderation for them. Any even marginally critical voice is immediately stamped to the ground.

So yes, on a scale from 1 to 10, they may be about 3 in terms of "listening to the community". That is certainly better than some other corporations that are 1 or even 0 on that scale. But they and some of their most die-hard fans act like they are 11.

All this discussion started by ste-phan wondering what would have happened if the community had decided not to support the tablet. And I maintain that such a community decision would have had absolutely zero impact.
