There’s a lot of hardware enshittification, eg removing a lot of commonly used ports from laptops. Also I don’t like the form factor of all these Macbook rip-offs.

I haven’t noticed similar issues with desktop computing, but for laptops, I do prefer older laptops.

Also, so many older devices go to e-waste when they’re perfectly usable. I like to salvage devices when other people don’t want them anymore.
