I don’t want a folding e-reader, I was a dual eReader with a hinge in the middle that acts like a book.

Using Calibre, they’re much of a muchness. I’ve got a kobo, I mostly eRead on my phone.

Turns out ethical wages and materials cost money. I agree that older tech being more ethical as whatever ‘cost’ is may have was paid by the first owner.

There’s other phones with user replaceable batteries. I looked it up a month or so ago. They’re not as ethical as fairphone, but still better than my drawer of working phones with dead batteries.

It’s not enshittification, but there’s a bunch of crappy rss bots on lemmy reposting low quality content pulled from various feeds. I feel like they’ve been abandoned and left to run creating internet litter around this site. I’ve started blocking them because I’m not against bots as a concept, but poorly written or with bad sources they can get pretty tiring. One of the things I appreciate about diggs $5 account fee is that it’d hopefully limit the amount of trolls/spam on the site.

I pronounce it like an Aussie, been enjoying the site and it’s results. These quants are allright.

The instructions are written on the packet and phones have a timer. This is marketing for Barilla and Spotify.

It’s not popular in Australia. We mostly still use traditional sms/text. My friends in .uk and .nl complain that I don’t have whatsapp but I retort with complaints that they don’t use signal.
