  • iPhones historically have lasted 5+ years while android manufacturers tend to support a phone for maybe 2 years.

    Only justnow are companies promising 7 year support for Android, but even then Google has been full of shit lately like their pixel subscription that they cancelled right when users were beginning to be eligible for a new free phone.

    You can complain about the headphone jack, but Apple devices last far far longer than comparable devices. That goes for Macs too where the hardware lasts 10 years, and Google and Microsoft just tossed millions of devices in the trash by dropping support.

    Linux has longer support than anyone, which should serve as a model, but of the tech companies Apple is the least guilty of planned obsolescence.

    I’m okay with house flippers because they’ll buy undervalued run down houses nobody wants and turn them into desirable homes.

    You can’t love there during the work and it’s a lot like recycling.

    I’m not a fan of the ones who strip the sole out of a perfectly good home and do what you mentioned.
