When updates gradually make those devices rage-inducingly slow, it’s inevitable that people will dispose of them. It really is a stretch to even say that they are “supporting” them.
Please don’t absolve mega corporations of their responsibility here.
@FarraigePlaisteach 99 times out of 100 the reason phones are getting slow is not updates, its a failing battery
Hold corporations accountable, but also don’t just shit on things to shit on them, device support isn’t that simple
@FarraigePlaisteach nuance is not inversely proportional to market cap
@countablenewt @FarraigePlaisteach Yeah people really need to stop unfairly blaming Apple all the time. They do far better for device support than Android junk phones.
