I’ll also add that while Fairphone markets that they suoport their phones for many years, the firmware of the Qualcomm SoC it ships with stops receiving updates after only a couple years. Your phone will not be secure after this point. Read more here:

TIL downvotes on Lemmy are public lol. That was honestly just a misclick tho, my bad

Definitely possible. The first one lasted nearly 30 years (until 2020), the second lasted less than a year and was still under warranty, and the third just broke a few weeks ago. My repair guy seems to think the replacement part he’s been able to get is just lower quality than the original.

I believe they are - in fact, Bosch acquired Gaggenau at some point. Unfortunately, it looks like both Bosch and Gaggenau discontinued the part :(

Miele vacuums are incredible. I have one that’s over 20 years old and still going strong. They’re still making accessories that fit it too!
