    Repairability doesn’t really matter if you only get two years of software updates.

    Yes, there’s lineage OS, but whether their support will be better, is doubtful.

    We shouldn’t support a company that openly says they don’t give a crap about their users’safety.

      It’s not easily repairable anyway, the removable back is a massive gimmick. You still need to do the usual disassembly of the phone with a heat gun, screwdriver, spudger, etc, to replace the battery. There is also a “warranty void if removed” sticker over the battery, which is illegal in some countries and irrelevant in others.
