  11. In the capitalist global system, every purchase is an action the determines how much power we give as consumers to big corporations.

    And this current system is not working for people or the planet as we know it, but only amplifying the polycrisis (*insert* mourning in future tense).

    I made a radical switch from iPhone to Android after almost 8 years or so. I downloaded all my 155 GBs of pictures from icloud and unsubscribed to the cloud storage (for life), everything self-hosted—soon.

    I switched to not a very normal Android device, but surely a fairer one. Fairphone is one of the most repairable phones out there, designed in the Netherlands. Promoting users to repair their own devices actively, a phone that you own not the other way around. The two visible screws (Torx T5) on the back even encourages user to open it themselves.

    On the other hand, even a new EU mandate requires every smartphone sold in Europe including Apple devices to feature a battery that can be replaced by the user without specialist tools, without voiding a warranty, and without sending the device to a manufacturer approved service center.

    The designers and the team at Fairphone even went so far as to incorporate the map of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, sourcing conflict-free tin and tantalum from mines. FYI: The same mines that produced almost 50% of uranium oxide (i.e. 8.59 million kg) for the U.S. Manhattan Project.

    A small step towards more circular electronics. ☀
