At least as many as techtubers influencers received them. So 1 too many of this grift.

But how many of them do you think put it away within a week of using it to make content? I would bet the ratio of people who possess one to people who will be disappointed is huge, assuming there are in fact disappointed users.

I think the disappointment probably came about 5 minutes after unboxing, and news of the shut down would be more relief than disappointment

How do you not understand that someone just having it and someone actively using it is completely different?
