This is an argument I often hear from tech people. Just upgrade! Just buy a new device! I think this is a wrong mindset. Yeah, in some cases it might be the best or the only solution, but more often than not it isn’t. First of all, not everyone has the budget to buy a new thing. And even if they do, the main question is – is that rational? Is that necessary? Tech people don’t take that into account at all. Just get rich, duh. Just get more money. Yeah, that’s a good idea to strive to improve your finances, but it won’t get you anywhere if you’re gonna spend it all without thinking. And shopaholism is no good. It is addictive. The mindset should be: how can you do what I want to do without buying new stuff? Can I repair an old devices? Can I borrow it? Do I even need it? Which budget do I have and what’s the least budget I can get away with? Can I sell an old device and buy second hand? Again, you don’t have to follow it. But don’t tell people to buy this and that, left and right, and don’t tell them that what they have is no good. That’s just bullshit.
