    You’re right that they don’t, but they should at least care about long-term support and repairability, and maybe they would with a little education.

      That’s exactly the attitude of most Linux people, and it’s completely out of touch.

      You don’t win people over by telling them what’s good for them. You do it by appealing to what they want. It doesn’t matter what you think they should care about.

        They probably do want their devices to last longer and be easier to fix. I think it’s crazy to suggest otherwise. They probably do not know that they can improve this situation.

        hence me saying it’s an education issue.

        I’ve heard countless people complain about planned obsolescensce related issues, they just think they are unsolvable. I think you may be out of touch.
