Comment on I'm so sick of dinky shitty devices with garbage rechargeable batteries

The “USB C” charger laws in the EU should help with this. As should the “right to repair” laws that are emerging.

Consider all the dinky appliances that end up in the garbage when their non-replaceable battery fails (like electric toothbrushes and razors). This is specially bad when the manufacturer chooses to use a lithium ion battery. Great way to start a fire in the garbage truck.
