the basic principle to hold onto though is just "don't get new devices you don't need." Repair and reuse whatever you can!

btw if you do need refurbished phones, laptops or other devices, or want to trade in your older devices or recycle the components and materials, I recommend Back Market. WAY way cheaper than new devices, and lower impacts backmarket.com/en-us

Is there a way to donate non-broken outdated devices for refurbishment? Preferably for free? 🥺
