For example, I only buy/use old high-end (for their day) business class laptops and put linux on them. They work for everything I need to write and surf.

I also bought an iPhone that was already a few years old and plan to keep it until it stops getting security updates from Apple. I also moved from Android to Apple not because I like iPhones better (I don’t, really), but because the years of security updates (versus maybe one or two, on Android) matters to me.

    If you want years of security updates, you might want to look into things like Fair Phones. They make repairing easy and promise more years of support than both apple and mainstream Android manufacturers.
