- foxhop 6y agoThere are other costs with not fixing it, but I get your point regarding time. That said the experience earned and the courage to take on bigger efforts is found through trying and spending time keeping other people's trash out of a landfill. This is true with software too otherwise we wouldn't have free and open source software. Right to repair for the win! https://www.gofundme.com/f/lets-get-right-to-repair-passed https://www.gofundme.com/f/lets-get-right-to-repair-passed
