Yes, I've been using fairphone for a number of year and when I upgraded to 4 I gave my 3 to my mom. Still works great and gets updates as well as spare parts.
The other way round for me. Approaching 70 and get my sons old phones. More than happy.
you are 70 and still understand how federation and similar things works? damn, I wonder whether I would be like you (updated on the internet and sorta things) when I reach 70
stay curious
that's what bought me to lemmy and i wonder how long i will stay like that. once you are cozy on something, the "stay curious" mindset would just vanish.
Age is just a number, it's where your head is at that counts.
I understand how youth looks on oldies because I remember how I thought when I was younger. I now see how wrong I was.
When you find your mother on Lemmy...
i wish they made rugged and water proof versions so my clumsy ass could buy one.
I can't wait to get one in the us soon. But I'll hang onto my current phone for as long as I can before hand. Best way to conserve is to use what you have ATM.
