So I'm from the Netherlands. My wife and I have this phone. We also have the framework laptop and "repeat audio" headphones (https://repeat.audio/, which are also repairable)

After owning and breaking a few phones and apparal that I could not fix, was hard to get serviced, and got stuck with repair bills I was done. Plus, I'm in a well-paying job (IT) so I figured; if anyone is capable of voting with my money, it's me.

I did install lineageos, and I use Linux on my frameworks. But the phone is simply wonderfull! I have an extra battery in my nutsack (https://nutsac.com/) so when I need it, I can swap battery's in like 10 seconds and continue my day with a full battery (https://shop.fairphone.com/shop/fairphone-4-battery-22?category=4#attr=)

My wife already broke the screen ;-) which was a 5 minute job to switch with simple tools. Absolutely wonderfull

Thank you for sharing your nutsac. I've been looking for a good one to play with for a while now and I just know I'm going to have fun with this one! My kids are gonna love this!

My wife cannot say enough good things about my nutsac. Holds everything we need while on the road.

I've got the larger 13" nutsac, which does impress everyone who sees it.
