Yep same here. Also they’re not capable of installing grapheneos which is kind of a deal breaker for me.
All I needed to know was when they released their BT earbuds just when the jack port got removed to figure out where their priorities are.

Isn’t that up to the GrapheneOS devs?

The GrapheneOS team makes their hardware security requirments very clear.
Its up to the hardware manufactures to include a few additional components used for securely storing keys, so far Google Pixles are the only consistent line of products that do so.

So… they chose to make a very Pixel-specific OS and you’re mad at Fairphone?

They are easily repairable and you don’t have to throw them away if the battery goes bad (just replace it).
How is that a bad thing? About 90% of other brands you can throw them away if the battery goes bad or they break.

I have to buy them? Every replaceable and repairable stuff is manufactured and has an impact.

I don’t have any of those, for related reasons. The best one can do is to consume less and less often.
Buying a USB-C-2-Jack dongle or BT headset is anything but eco-friendly. It goes straight against the whole brand if you need to buy new stuff in addition to make it work.

Of course they’re gonna offer BT earbuds if there’s no audio jack? Or did you want them included or something? A lot of people here are way angrier than justified.

Of course they are going to offer dongles too! The profit margins are way better on those. Fuck what the users want, we want money!

Louis Rossman is a perfect example of someone who’s angry all the time.

And an attack on his character is of zero relevance to the topic of Fairphone and jack ports.

This is the vibe I’m getting from Lemmy lately just angry people shouting at clouds.

If it makes you feel better, I do that off of Lemmy, too.
