Whether it be electronics, automobiles or medical equipment, the manufacturers should not be able to horde “oem” parts, render your stuff useless if you repair it with aftermarket parts, or hide schematics of their products.

Yeah I've had so much bad luck with wireless buds. Wish they were a little more consistent for SKUs that arrent like 100+ dollars

I can't find the newsletter/blogpost but I did read that fairphone are apparently looking at making their earbuds more repairable than they are currently, which is good.

I have WF-1000XM3's right now that are still running fine, dont really use them much so the battery degradation is a non issue for me at the moment, but when it is I'm happy enough to attempt a battery replacement when the time comes.
