While they were happy with what the fairphone 4 brought to the table, they seem to like what was changed for the fairphone 5.
What are you guys' opinions on this? A welcome change? would you get one if your phone died within the next year?

I'd jump on the Fairphone first thing if not having a single tie to an advertising/tracking company was an option. But here we are.

Also when visiting Fairphone forums, I get "This community is not accessible in your location."

It is still a business and a business is gonna business, thus never gonna be as ethical as one would want.

Well I would buy the Murena version of the Fairphone. The one with /e/os installed. Apparently everything works on it, without google learning too much about you.

Sounds like a your country issue.
