> Jesus, that’s a really bad article, spinning some truths, irrelevant info and memes into hate. Such a strong statement! I look forward to the rest of your comment wherein you detail these "irrelevant infos and memes" and "hate". > Most of what’s written applies to all wireless headphones, wired headphones or even other consumer electronics. So after complaining about "irrelevant info and memes" you're leading with whataboutism? Where's your evidence for your initial statement? > Also, Apple has a recycling program. Big whoop. So does Best Buy, Walmart and Target. That doesn't change the fact that wired headphones could last 20 years whereas the ones Apple now pushes could never ever last that long. > Would it be too much journalism to say why it doesn’t change the situation? Would it be too much to ask for you to support your initial statements with some actual evidence? Anyway, I thought it was obvious that a recycling program wouldn't change the situation. > If they managed to recycle most of the AirPods, then I’m mostly happy with the product, and it’s entirely my fault if it ends up on a landfill. So, it's your fault that Apple sells overpriced crap that sounds bad and and has to be recycled after a year of usage, but they market it really well so that people that are naturally susceptible to such types of marketing are forced to buy it as a status symbol? I don't think so. Seems like a societal/biological issue. > True, I would wish the headphones to be more repairable, but there’s a big difference between designing a repairable washing machine and repairable wireless headphones. The design constraints are pretty tight I imagine. Headphone jacks worked great since forever. What ever happened to those? I guess you blame Vice for marketing a worse replacement and engineering it to look like a better option by removing headphone jacks? > Writing such hateful and poor quality articles is not going to improve anything. I feel like your analysis is severely lacking here. Frankly, the more people who know about the overpriced, overhyped garbage that Apple sells, the better.
