While they were happy with what the fairphone 4 brought to the table, they seem to like what was changed for the fairphone 5.
What are you guys’ opinions on this? A welcome change? would you get one if your phone died within the next year?

    I’d jump on the Fairphone first thing if not having a single tie to an advertising/tracking company was an option. But here we are.

    Also when visiting Fairphone forums, I get “This community is not accessible in your location.”

    It is still a business and a business is gonna business, thus never gonna be as ethical as one would want.

      Well I would buy the Murena version of the Fairphone. The one with /e/os installed. Apparently everything works on it, without google learning too much about you.

      Wdym with not wanting a single tie to an advertising/tracking company? You can ose E/OS to completely remove any Google tracking. Also what do you currently use? I don’t know of a single first party phone OS that doesn’t track you
