After the transformation away from US services and products, it's time to go one step further.
As I have already announced, I will soon be replacing my Pixel 9 with Graphene OS with a Fairphone 6 with /e/OS from Murena.
Although I personally really appreciate Graphene OS and am an avid user, I'm not sure what the future will bring under the fascist Trump. As I said, he can force US companies to hand over data of European users or turn off their services for Europe with the stroke of a pen. Or whatever other stupid things this orange psychopath can think of. Pixel devices from Google are another point.
However, I'm still considering a Framework Laptop 12 for my future laptop because of its sustainability and reparability.
Framework? AN US COMPANY??? Yes, unfortunately there is no European equivalent in this field, but unlike software and internet solutions, I am relatively independent after the purchase. The worst case would be if I could no longer buy current components. But then the Framework would be just like any other computer, which is generally almost impossible to repair or upgrade. But I want to keep that option open.
And I hope - like the rest of the world - that the fascist and criminal spook in the USA will soon be over and the situation there will return to some semblance of normality. Hope dies last...
