My opinion as a german probably doesn’t really matter, but this guy as well as Kamala are giving me hope again that the world might not have gone completely mad. Also if this works out for you guys I hope the german party system is paying attention.

Well I guess it’s time to go Fairphone then. It’s way more expensive than I’d like but honestly I’m so done replacing my phone because of software issues and not because the hardware wasn’t serviceable anymore
I believe it shipped with 10 and I’m currently sitting on 12. Last security updates are from December 2023 so I’ll probably have to switch sooner than later…
It’s a Nokia 5.4
Edit: to be fair that’s not too bad compared to other android vendors. It’s actually pretty good. But being the cleanest pig in the mudpit isn’t really the goal I want to achieve. I’d rather be actually clean.
I’m also unclear on the exact technical details but there’s probably a reason that lineageos and the other free androids out there are not easily installable but have to be customised to each device.
I’m pretty sure that reason is mostly manufacturers being dicks about this. So it could probably be fixed by mandating some kind of interoperability. OTOH the governments are probably happy that not more people are using degoogled devices
Tell Nokia to release android 13 or 14 for my device and I’ll gladly run it.
The average German household has about 160K to their name, total. Not just cash but total, including cars, homes, whatever. The median is going to be even lower, the average is always skewed upwards in these statistics.
Even for people in the median getting an extra 85k is going to drastically improve their lives. Maybe not life-changing. But go to the 25th percentile and this is going to look a lot different. And that’s not the “poorest” in society.
