Just stop buying iPhones, problem solved.

Not yet but one day. If I could get a phone and keep it for 20 years (with repairs/upgraded parts) then I'd switch.

If apple removes the plug then i'll start considering the other options when my current phone becomes unusable. Until then it's too easy to buy an old iphone and hold onto it for 6 years.

fairphone 5 is out :-) it is getting upgrades until the 2030s. and it is so easily repairable that it is realistic to use it for a long time

I am sincerely hoping that makes it to the US. The only thing available now is the Fair Phone 4.
