I don't blame them for having only a small team to keep an entire OS running on multiple devices, but come on, how is it possible that something as simple as taking a screenshot on the tablet hasn't worked for about two years, or why has no one ever fixed the regression where the Android support is set to English regardless of the current locale, also exclusive to the tablet? The tablet's performance in home menu and launcher is still dire, but at least I can sleep soundly knowing that a Qt update will eventually work around those issues.
Very few people ever received the Jolla Tablet though, even fewer probably still use it. I understand that sucks if you happen to be one of those exclusive few but I can understand if they don't spend much time on Jolla Tablet only issues.

It is a bit of a hard situation for them, they want to provide new devices for people to use, but it also serves to spread their efforts thinner as they have more devices to maintain. At least with the Sony Xperia stuff the adaptations are all open so you can help fix things yourself
