Fairphone put out a document that takes a holistic look at the environmental impact of electronics. Everything detailed by component, material, process, etc. Really interesting for those looking to dig deeper

@Techaltar I appreciate what fairphone is doing, but without powerful hardware the logic behind keeping your phone for 7 years breaks. The pricing of iphone 17e is on par with frairphone 6 and i would bet that you would have better 7 years of experience with iphone rather than with fairphone.

The Fairphone 6 is pretty powerful! The problem I foresee for the remainder of my use of the FP6 is with the #enshittification of Google's apps (them trying to drive it into obsolecence prematurely because of arbitrarily raised system resource requirements, mostly RAM), but I am in the process of replacing those anyway.
