My last phone I kept for about 5 years. I had two issues:
fortunately there was a local shop who’d replace the battery (it wasn’t a fairphone so I couldn’t do it myself). If it wasn’t for the software support I’d have gone that route and would be still using it now. It worked perfectly well for my use case. Unfortunately, I ended up retiring the phone and getting a new one.
I’ve found this too. Generally if I’m okay waiting for the answer I’ll try and find the relevant lemmy community and ask that question there instead of clicking the reddit links. There are times though I simply need the answer and so of course I do click the reddit link.
Even so, if we all try and ask the questions we have here Lemmy will eventually be the place you find this information
I live in Sweden. Yeah, the tap water is clean and can be drank straight from the tap without boiling, filtering, or treatment in the whole country.
I use SMS and Matrix. I’d love to see something like Briar become more popular, or maybe XMPP make a resurgence as it’s been a great federated chat protocol for a long while.
Yep, I’m in Sweden, 30 and both know how to and do drive a manual car.
