  • Fairphone 3 still has the headphone jack, it was removed with Fairphone 4. Still worth it because you can swap out any component with a single screw driver within minutes and you get years of updates. Also while not perfect, they make an effort to source their materials as ethically as possible and pay the factory workers a living wage.

  • Why would I carry my groceries in a plastic bag or a collapsible box when I can just use a backpack? I can easily carry 15kg in my backpack.

    I mostly go shopping with my bike though. I have huge bags that attach to the carrier and that can fit about a week of groceries for two people. I can transport even more with my bike trailer if I need to.

  • For the same price, a Fair Phone is always going to be outdated. They can't scale as much as the big manufacturers can and they (are trying to) avoid slave labor etc.
    It's simply not possible to be as cheap as the others who do everything to be as cheap as can be.

  • They actually support their phones for years. You can even still get most parts of the Fairphone 2 which was released 8 years ago. New android versions are provided for a minimum of 5 years, often longer.

    They also source their materials and labor as ethically as possible.

    None of it is perfect of course, but considering the fucked up phone market, they're doing an amazing job.

  • I can agree with some of those, but what do you mean with the LGBTQAI+? All people ask for is to be treated equally to everyone else. Also, "especially TQIA+?" What have asexuals ever done to you?

  • It's really damn complicated. There is so much history to this conflict. I honestly don't know what Israel's best move would be.
    I just think there has to be a way to have less civilian casualties. People are suffering greatly in Gaza and it somehow needs to stop.
    On the other hand I understand that the Israeli government has to react to the Hamas attacks. Hundreds of innocents were slaughtered and Israel is surrounded by enemies. Constantly in danger. They need to make sure nobody else dares to attack.

    In a perfect world they would (or rather: could) treat Gaza like the US treated Germany after WWII. But I'm afraid even with massive humanitarian and economic help there would still be terror and violence from Hamas. This conflict is too old and too dogmatic to be solved in a matter of weeks or even years.

    Look around in this thread - even people who don't have any personal stakes in the conflict have such radical options about it. I can't imagine what it must feel like to be a Palestinian or Israeli who has lost family members to this.
