And on top of that, they made any alternative illegal! You want to live in your van? Illegal, you want to build a tiny house? Illegal. It’s insane

I Can see this trend growing, I’m apart of buying older refurbished phones.

I agree with this statement. I was a heavy user of “Redditisfun” app for ten years. The amount of reading and learning was a lot. But ever since they killed 3rd party apps I haven’t use Reddit, the original app is unbearable. And I feel like I’m getting dumber as I don’t exercise that access to information enough now. I’ve just made a Lemmy account and trying to find my supply here, so far so good :)
