      Where does one find a used phone? I would have no idea.

      More importantly, I don’t want a used phone, OR to have to spend more money.

          I dont really have a choice do I?

          Also, this isn’t just phones: I am using Fdroid on several TV devices too.

          This really, really sucks.

            Yes, you do. But you’re making the wrong one

          Yuck. Nope. A used phone from a rando? No way in hell. Usb likely worn out, battery half the life of new… No.

              Not really a fan of Ebay. Getting a used slightly worn phone doesn’t seem like a good idea. The usb C on every phone I have had (if it gets clean or not) starts to not work as well if at all, and the battery is certainly not going to work to 100 percent any more.
