Is the opening supposed to sound like an attack on Fairphone?
Fairphone’s marketing can be a tad excessive, but I don’t think this is aimed at them. Fairphone and Framework have very similar stances on this issue: Make fewer repairable devices that last longer.
It’s much more likely to be aimed at Apple, since they just had their conference with the usual “here’s a tiny thing we’re doing! We’re saving the world! Now buy the new shiny!” stuff.
Yeah FW have some major streamlining themselves to do.
They had a giant pile of 11th gen boards they found recently and sold for cheap.
