So much for eco responsibilty to buy dongles that could be avoided and wear usb-c.

I never heard of them before, but i'm getting major red flags from this :

• using indiegogo and not kickstarter (indiegogo has way laxed policies), and the goal seems very random and even low.

• selling a linux phone hardware, which is not what is needed. The linux phone issue is software, and they don't talk much about it. If you need a capable linux phone, the pinephone pro is "good enough"

• they boast about using a 3 years-old sbc. Granted it is a decent platform but there's nothing to write home about (and 32gb of RAM is uncessesary)

While this is the vision of a phone i'd actually get, this aint looking like the correct one. Also it looks like their campaign will fail.

First of all no, i dont want to carry a dongle as i may plug in multiple headsets.

Second of all, i want to charge my phone while listening to music, and i want even less to carry a doubling d'ongle

Third of all, i fail to see the "eco responsible" part of needing to buy more things than nécessary, then wearing down needlessly the usb-c over time.

So, with all due respect, piss off

PS : you're the same kind of person who said "don't want a phone without headphone jack? Only buy one that has one instead of complaining" when apple started the trend, and guess what mfers, i'm never stopping complaining

This this this.

They want to sell their buds and headset.

don't misunderstand me, those are great repairable bluetooth devices, but if i were to not have a headphone jack and just a "long lasting repairable phone" , i'm sticking to my Google pixel.

Am using only boost, wherever it's allowed. Aka only lemmy
