We are not sustainable And neither is any other device maker. This industry is full of “feel good” messaging, but generates 50 million metric tons of e-waste each year. We believe the best way to reduce environmental impact is to create products that last longer, meaning fewer new ones need to be made. Instead of operating on feels, we operate on data and actions. With funding from Intel, we commissioned Fraunhofer IZM to do a detailed life cycle analysis (LCA) on Framework Laptop 13 to help us understand where we are today and where we can continue to improve. Check out our thoughts on reducing environmental impact and download the LCA report here…
What’s wrong with fairphone?
I recall the fairphone 2 being touted as an open platform with support for ubuntu touch, phosh and more. There’s not a word of that with the current lineup.
The new one launched with the privacy friendly /e/OS and initial PostmarketOS (Linux) support…

Looks like that same person made a followup video? It was suggested to me under the first one:
Why I was wrong about fairphone
I haven’t watched either yet, planning to do that tomorrow
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Louis is a really cool guy but to link his old rant video and leave out the newer favorable one where he literally talks about them releaseing shematics as firt smartphone manufacturer ever is a really shitty move!!!

Bad bot, that’s a yt link
It’s not, the link text is youtube, but it links to piped
For me it links to YouTube, could be an issue with thunder (lemmy app)
I like the “fairphonesucks=true” Parameter though. That’s a nice touch

They still have a SD card reader up to fucking 2TB but got rid of the headphone jack in favor of a little more water proofing, not my favorite decition but certainly not a reason to call the only even remotely fair phone with some actual fair trade and recycled materials and unfair…
I agree with you but want to highlight Shiftphone as another manufacturer which is prioritizing fair and more environmentally advantageous production.
Yea, they are a lot smaller and not that far yet but also a really cool project and definitely worth supporting too! It’s not exactly the same kind of device (you do need a certain amount of knowledge to fix stuff) but also very repairable, unlike with the Fairphone I don’t know anyone who owns one tho so I can’t say that much about it.
