Switzerland did not deserve that goose egg. Everyone in the bar I was at (US, MN) was shocked when that was announced, we also booed Israel and laughed at UK getting zero (even if that is the song that comes the closest to describing this year’s Eurovision - what the hell just happened? No clue but I hate it). We were hyped for Austria pulling out the win.
It seemed like they had audio issues with the broadcast for that song on top of audio issues at the bar I was at, it really didn’t show the song in the best light but I suspect it was their best performance of the entire contest and it’s a shame the audio issues hurt it, I’ll have to rewatch it. I’m not sure they deserved 0, but I thought it was bad enough it was funny they got zero.

(Sweden won the bar votes, of course)
I didn’t love the UK song but it was fun and staged/performed well. They deserved better.
Switzerland definitely didn’t deserve 0.
But what do I know. I’m the only person who actually liked Embers.
