I don’t want a new phone. I want my perfectly good hardware to keep getting updates until it actually stops working. I want replaceable batteries that get recycled. If a company stops giving updates I want to be able to change the OS.

@akareilly@hachyderm.io I'd go one step further still: I want no new phone, and no updates either. 95% of updates are utterly useless to users, but lucrative to their makers (who therefore do all they can to make them appear useful, and mandatory).
