That's awesome! I agree - 5 years should be the minimum
That's awesome - planned obsolescence is the inevitable result of capitalism, very glad that Fairphone is pushing back against this shitty industry trend. If the Fairphone 4 had a headphone jack, I'd be jumping ship in a heartbeat.
I thought to myself "that's cool. What about hardware? After a few years parts will need changing". Quickly found there's lots of spare parts in the fairphone shop.
Sabaidee, Welcome!
This is a community for promoting sustainability in tech and computing. This includes: understanding the impact that our tech/computing choices have on the environment; purchasing or re-using devices that are sustainable and repairable; how to properly recycle or dispose of old devices when it is beyond use; and promoting software and services that allow us to reduce our environmental impact in the long term, both at work and in our personal lives.
This isn't a competition, it's a reminder to stay grounded when making your decisions. Remember: The most sustainable device is the one that you are already using.
