Opt out? Opt in? Opt Green!
50% of consumers buy new devices due to unsupported software, while the "tsunami of #eWaste" continues to rise.
#FreeSoftware #OpenSource can keep those devices in use and out of the landfill. Today!
Say hello to the new #KDEEco project "#OptGreen: #SustainableSoftware For Sustainable Hardware".

You don't need new hardware for a secure, up-to-date device; you just need the right software!
@be4foss @kde @fsfe Thanks for the link. The info there _is_ useful but I don't think it addresses the main issue with flashing (and thus upcycling with free SW) Android phones - it's very complicated, risky, and you forfeit the ability to use the phone for banking and such because the apps only support Android/iOS. And yes, I realize it's not within the powers of the FOSS devs to solve this; I guess they'd have to be EU/US government lol :/
@edison23 @be4foss @kde @fsfe Interesting! Just yesterday, I was contemplating the use of banking apps on mobile devices. Then my thoughts materialized into this: https://freeradical.zone/@jdoe/112519866801858421
@jdoe @be4foss @kde @fsfe That's valid. Biometrics are an evil authentication method, yet oh so comfortable… but you're right, of course.
