A place to share practical, durable and quality made products that are made to last, with an emphasis on upcycled and sustainable products!
Guidelines:
Things that are well-made and durable (even if they won't last a lifetime) are A-Okay!
Unlike that other BIFL place, Home-made and DIY items are encouraged here, as long as some form of instruction is included in the body of the post.
Videos links are not allowed as post titles, but you may use them in a text post.
A limited amount of self-promotion is accepted, IF the item you are selling aligns with this criteria:
- The item must be made with sustainable or recycled materials.
- If electronic in some way, the item must be open-source.
- The item must be user-serviceable (if applicable).
- You cannot be a large corporation.
- The post must be clearly marked with a [Self Promotion] tag in your title.

Ive owned 2 Hiby devices, and bought one for my Mother for a Christmas gift. Honestly its such a niche piece of tech that there's not really a pro repair company making DAPs, I think IBasso make DAPs with somewhat removable batteries but they charge a pretty penny, maybe hold out till post 2027 to see if some companies conform to EU regulations with user serviceable batteries.
Alas, HIBY are my favourite go to, the R4 is a value king around 250 and my personal DAP currently, the R3 ii is also a good choice at 150/175. But if thats too much, they do cheaper models at 90-ish for the R1.
