Angry shareholder noises
Shareholders can cope and seeth
phone manufacturers hiss and recoil like vampires
Yeah I think so, but they’ve stopped providing security updates for it.

Imagine a world where we accept that things don’t have to be fantastically better than what came before, and we can find happiness in what we have.
That’s not how humans work.

I guess we’re fucked, then.
Yup. All this technological advancement is cos we’re never really satisfied of what we have. Was it good in the 80s, was it enough? No. We never settle. That one day will be our ruin.
Except the battery won’t hold a charge any more and it’s impossible to replace
Ah, right. They have time until 2025 for replaceable batteries. They want to milk you until the last moment (not only Apple).
And then there’s the issue of security updates.

Grab FairPhone.
I just upgraded to an iPhone 13. I only did that because the battery in my XR was dying and a new phone was $10 a month. Otherwise, I would have been fine keeping it indefinitely.
If I may ask: why not a FairPhone? Those are repairable so they seem like a good investment if you’re gonna spend iPhone level of money*.
*Tho I guess an older iPhone 13 is cheaper than a new FairPhone nowadays but idk by how much.
Because I can’t get one for $10 a month and I don’t want to repurchase the hundreds of dollars worth of apps I’ve already paid for.
My Pixel 2 XL that’s suffering begs to differ…
