Depends on the situation. Sometimes “the boring bits” need to be done. And supporting such an old hardware that nobody has won’t pay off in 99.9% of the circumstances. It’s basically lightning in a bottle type of deal. Also stuff like this can be done post release among bugfixing to give a dev a break from monotony.
In reality Trump raised 7 mil (last I checked) on a gofundme, his campaign raised 12 mil. He was then dragged through the dirt by people for “pocketing 97% of the funds” when in reality some dude didn’t understand that gofundme takes 3%.
