Opt out? Opt in? Opt Green!

50% of consumers buy new devices due to unsupported software, while the “tsunami of #eWaste” continues to rise.

#FreeSoftware #OpenSource can keep those devices in use and out of the landfill. Today!

Say hello to the new #KDEEco project “#OptGreen: #SustainableSoftware For Sustainable Hardware”.

You don’t need new hardware for a secure, up-to-date device; you just need the right software!

    @nubesik @NaibofTabr Thanks for the review! You ordered the replacement parts from the maker directly? How hard was it to install them? And lastly, do you possibly know how much you paid for the replacement parts cumulatively? Thanks again :)

      @edison23 @NaibofTabr the repairs for an estimated 7-8 years lifetime are another 80€, assuming nothing else breaks. Then the camera upgrade was 60€ on top. I bought everything from the official shop.
