@niconeko it's not that hard...
I can do it with my @Fairphone #FP3plus...
@MikaKpk Consider the @Fairphone #FP3plus.
Sadly, #Fairphone did #downgrade future versions with no real #DualSIM but shitty #eSIM [put that thing on a #NanoSIM instead FFS!]...
@gplr @kuketzblog +9001%
Währenddessen liefert @Fairphone das nachweislich!

- tooted von einem #FP3plus
@[email protected] @[email protected] Nein, weil ich meinem Smartphone prinzipiell nichts anvertraue... Aber #ITsec, #OpSec, #InfoSec & #ComSec scheint ihnen fremd zu sein. Apropos #Updates für #SoC's: Wenn nicht derselbe Maßstab für #Modems, #Router, #Laptops, #Desktops und #Server im bezug auf deren #Firmware (& #BIOS / #UEFI) angesetzt wird, halte ich jene Haltung eher für #FUD zum @[email protected] denn glaubwürdig.
@ainmosni I bought a @Fairphone #FP3plus new when the #FP4 was just released and I won't stop using it until there are no #Security #Updates & no #aftermarket #firmware and no replacement #batteries on the market...
#UseLonger is better than #Repair is better than #Recycle...
@stuartl To go back to the point:
I had similar issues with a @Fairphone #FP3plus battery bulging...
Fixing that costed me €34,99 with shipping to get a new #battery from #iFixit mailed to me and then just swapping it.
Like ALL ELECTRONICS SHOULD ALLOW PEOPLE TO DO!

Attached: 1 image People might wonder why I am a little hesitant about buying #Apple products now… Back in 2011 I bought a used 2008-model #Apple #MacBook (MacBook 5.1), sporting a Intel Core 2 Duo, 2GB RAM and a 160GB HDD. It was in good condition. I updated the OS on there to MacOS X 10.6, dual-booted with Gentoo Linux. I later upped the disk to a 750GB HDD (SSDs were puny and a bit dicey back then) and upgraded the RAM to 8GB. It was a good workhorse for a couple of years, except its lack of ports. 2 USB 2.0 ports is a pain to work with, netbooks have more. Plus the lack of RS-232 was a pain at work. I bought a Panasonic ToughBook CF-53mkII (pictured) to replace the MacBook at work, and used it as a work-from-home machine. After a while, it managed to cook its original batteries, so I took the machine into one of Apple's vendors in Brisbane, and picked up a replacement battery. Installation on this model is a tool-free process. A few years later, the machine managed to cook _that_ battery too! So the MacBook today is battery-less. This means when disconnected from power, it forgets the current date/time, and if that magsafe power connector moves just slightly, the machine may shut down as there's no back-up power supply. I've had several laptops over the years, but only one Apple, and this is the only machine I've used or owned that has cooked its own battery in such spectacular fashion. I'm thankful its removal is a tool-free process. Modern MacBooks have their batteries glued in. Sorry, hard-pass! Especially as the ToughBook here is still being used today, its original battery is still good for 2-3 hours (and I have a new replacement which is good for ~6). #RightToRepair #SpicyPillow (CC @[email protected])

I want #toolfree #swappable and fully removeable #batteries...
Whilst I dislike the fact that my @Fairphone #FP3plus battery was bulging into a #DangerPillow, being able to tool-free remove it and just get a replacement from #iFixit for less than the cost of labout to get it done by an #AASP on an #iPhone is a godsend.
Personally I want my devices repairable and yes, #Apple designs them to get slower and to be not repairable ON PURPOSE!

Thanks to #HughJeffreys for showing the #Enshittifcation of #Tech through #PlannedObsolescence aka. #ReducedLifecycle in a #TechIlliterate-friendly way. We need to radicalize the #Consoomers and #Normies so they refuse to buy trash tech! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYhRPiVPA3c
@heafnerj because there is NO EXCUSE to justify a device to be less #repairable than a @Fairphone #FP3plus...
Stuff that will inefitably fail over time and use should be toolfree swappable - like batteries, storage, SIMs...
@EU_Commission
Ordered a new #battery for my @Fairphone #FP3plus because mine is turning tiself into a #DangerPillow and fails to fit anymore...
Ordered it from #iFixit since they charge half the shipping [#DHL from #Germany instead of #UPS from the #Netherlands] and it should arrive tomorrow.
Also grabbed some tools like a glassfiber scratch pen to help #RGH3 my 360s...
