Bah! I thought for sure, from the subject line, this would be a post about the Fairphone: https://www.fairphone.com/en/ I had to buy a suboptimal alternative, the Teracube 2e: https://myteracube.com/

Even aside from your question about cohort size, why do the righties always abuse the word "free"? Freedom is the ability to replace one's battery, camera lens, or wifi module without replacing the whole phone: https://www.repair.org/stand-up/
