I feel like the complaint about this not adding to security could be read in a really wrong way. Instead of "this is some hypocritical BS", could be interpreted as "lol let's lock EOL devices from even lower integrity tiers". Doubt this is possible because so, so many people use EOL phones, but still.

- Hoodedcrow 5mo agoEh, not really. Using EOL devices is genuinely a bad idea, it's just that with phones you have no choice due to the updates usually being only like 2-3 years and alternative OSes not being as accessible as Linux. And most people don't even care or know anyway.
- erikerikson 5mo agoI would attribute EOL phone use to largely to being frugal or poor. I'm sure at least one person considers the ecological factor but I'd expect that to be a small cohort.
