Comment on Americans are holding onto devices longer than ever and it’s costing the economy
GalacticGrapefruit@lemmy.world 1 week agoYank here. I dunno what these fucks are complaining about. All my phones have either been cheap, or refurbished secondhand. Hell, I even learned how to fix my own so I could make them last as long as possible. And when the OS gets too slow, I start throwing out old apps like I’m bailing a leaky ship. My average phone’s lifetime is nearly five years.
You know what this smells like? Smells like rich people complaining about poor people being pragmatic and sensible. “Decreasing productivity by 1/3 of a percentage point.” Spoiled little prince can eat my entire ass.
