False equivalence, Jolla is not some uneducated white trash lottery winner, nor are they a big bank (letting big banks fail is problematic for a great many reasons, which is outside the scope of this thread).

Jolla exists purely on Investment funds, you can decide whether that fits into your notion of 'deserve' or not, and since we don't have much in the way of accounting sheets its hard to say exactly how much money has been 'wasted'.

Unfortunately in this instance I don't believe the community can do anything more than it has already done, Devices have been bought, further devices have been crowdfunded, apps have been written, devices have been ported, feedback and ideas given on TJC. Unless one of us is secretly a multi-millionare, what more do they want from us?
