  • What I'm assuming happens is that no way is fool-proof, so they managed to limit the amount going into the USB port, and they'd be able to limit the amount going into the jack, but not by enough to tip it over the edge of the rating.

  • Copying my reply to this same point from elsewhere:

    Those phones were presumably glued together and not as repairable as the Fairphone is. Which is very useful, but does lower your waterproof rating, hence the need to compensate elsewhere.

    I really feel like people are too quick to assume malice, generally. Often, there are just trade-offs with no clearly-right answer, and it's not obvious to folks like us on the outside what those trade-offs are.

  • Ubuntu is the most popular one, which is honestly probably the best rule-of-thumb to use when first starting out.

    If you want primarily community-driven, Fedora is probably the most popular one.

    Both are focused on being easy-to-use, though of course as with any change, there will be some learning to do with new UI paradigms.
