…So he wants to expand into phones. And I wouldn’t, I just don’t like when guys pretend they’re not doing the exact thing apple is doing.

Have you considered he opened a repair store cause he's sick of the bullshit consumerism and irreparable devices

[-] kitonthenet@kbin.social 5 points 1 year ago

He didn’t open a business to make money? So it’s a non-profit?

[-] Sylver@lemmy.world 24 points 1 year ago

By your logic, any business is evil because they make money and exploit the customer. Now you win the argument, go home.

I never said it’s evil, I just don’t like when dudes pretend they’re not doing the same thing apple is

Any business is evil*

*Except apple \s

I used to watch his content a couple of years ago and I remember him saying multiple times that he reaches his goal if he goes out of buisness. Devices being so easy to repair, that his services are no longer needed would be a reason he'll gladly accpect as a failure of his buisness. I haven't watched him in a while so I'm not sure whether he still holds that opinion. But given that the laptops, phones and harddrives waiting for repair where literary piling up in his workshop, it's more likely that his shop burns down than him running out of customers. What he lacks is time, and skilled workers to fullfill orders, which are much harder to come by than broken electronics.

No. Hadn’t considered that at all. I had thought about how he opened a business to make money though.

[-] Baketime@kbin.social 12 points 1 year ago

this guy just wants to help you replace parts of your phone instead of your whole phone

I don't see the issue

[-] Chreutz@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Have you come across Louis Rossmann online before?

[-] Voyajer@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

No, he used to do phones a long time ago though iirc. He's repeatedly said he doesn't want to get back into phone repair because there's no margin.
