A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Trade-in deals mostly suck around here. I hand my 'old' phones down to friends and family, who hand theirs down to their kids. Their kids usually get a 'new' phone when their old one has stopped working or is really, really showing its age. I assume this system is representative of a quite sizeable part of society, so I'm not sure how much to read into those trade-in statistics.
Yeah, same here.
