    Ive been using my Fairphone 3 every single day since January 2020. I did have a vibration motor wear out, but its replaceable so its fine. My battery is a bit iffy now. According to a battery scan app I use, its at 63% health. I’ll be replacing that soon too since sometimes it will only charge up to a certain point etc. Still though, on any other phone, that would be a deal breaker, but since I can order a replacemt battery for like 25€, its not an issue.

    Only other issue I have is sometimes the screen experiences ghost touches, where it will register a touch on the screen even when I’m not using it. Again, this will be fixed with a replacement later on.

    I love my Fairphone and I strongly reccomend it for its repairablity alone. The sustainability and FairTrade aspects are just a bonus IMO.

    I bought my Fairphone 3 at the start of 2020. I love it. I love the fact I can dissamble it with the provided screwdriver in two minutes.

    I love that I can buy replacement parts for it if anything breaks without having to get some kind of expensive repair from Apple or Samsung. Ive replaced the charging port on this phone and I’ll be replacing the battery soon too. Giving people the ability to fix and maintain their own devices is fantastic.

    I am hoping to get a decade out of this device and I’m nearing 4 years with no complaints so far. I’m a little bit dissapointed they got rid of the headphone jack on the Fairphone 4. While you can get adapters etc, it shouldn’t be necessary imo. That alone is my biggest gripe with that device. Aside from that though, they make great devices and I highly reccomend them

    I’m going to assume you are not a troll lol.

    Its a frame from Indiana Jones. A movie about an American archeology professor exploring places for ancient artifacts.

    In the first movie, he is searching for the Holy Grail but is also fighting a bunch of actual Nazis.

    The joke here is that Indiana Jones is an actual professor in these movies. In real life, college professors tend to lean politically left.

    Meanwhile, hes beating the shit out of a Nazi. Modern day Nazis adore Donald Trump and so obviously lean far right.

    So Indiana Jones beating up a Nazi is like a leftie professor beating up and an Alt Right Trump supporter.

    Its not funny since I have to explain it now. But on the 0.01% chance you are not a troll, at least now you know

    “Can we have something like multireddits please”

    “Can someone explain how the Fediverse works”

    “I’m making a new Lemmy app”

    “I can’t wait for [x] to make a Lemmy app”

    “Wtf is a tankie”

    “Rule”

    “[A meme about being trans]”

    “[A meme about being neuro-atypical]”

    “[A meme you have seen reposted a dozen times elsewhere]”

    “I miss Apollo”

    PS, I dont mean this in a bad way. I love Lemmy and it is hugely encouraging to see so many people use it. I’m just poking fun at trends I’m seeing emerge.
