So since the movement started i am slowly turning my back on everything made in USA. Ofcourse tech is the hardest one. Stijl on android but making steps. Canceled all subcriptions, no sociale media, no google services, etc. The one thing i noticed, ram / memory / cpu / battery usage is way down. Juist shows what all was going on in the background.

I have a FP5 and while I'm still mad about the headphone jack missing, I'm pretty happy with it.

I ultimately made the choice because I want to support people making repairable tech and also because performances aren't improving as fast as they did 10 years ago, so I'm OK with not having the best components.
