I think this was their business plan. See if it works and, if it doesn't, shut it down

Is that a problem? Seems like a fair strategy. lol

Only if you're using other people's money.

Fair early, fail fast is a cornerstone of startup culture

That's not what Session is doing. They're dragging it out with a plea for donations to cover operating expenses.

I don't see the issue.

Keeping the servers online for 90 days is a very good thing.

This final donation run doesn't change the timeline unless it gets a big amount of money, in which case is it supposed to be bad for them to change plans?

I don't see an issue either. I never really fully bought into moving fast and breaking things.

I'll rephrase. I don't see what's "dragging it out" about what they're doing.
