Sabaidee, Welcome!

This is a community for promoting sustainability in tech and computing. This includes: understanding the impact that our tech/computing choices have on the environment; purchasing or re-using devices that are sustainable and repairable; how to properly recycle or dispose of old devices when it is beyond use; and promoting software and services that allow us to reduce our environmental impact in the long term, both at work and in our personal lives.

This isn't a competition, it's a reminder to stay grounded when making your decisions. Remember: The most sustainable device is the one that you are already using.

Rules:

  1. Stay on-topic. Everything from sustainable smartphones to data centers and the green energy that powers them is fair game.
  2. Be excellent to each other.

I saw the "electrek.co" in the overview and thought "that sounds the website of an electric bike manufacturer/seller", but I clicked it anyways, not realizing what I should expect.

I should have known it would be a lame "Bet you didn't know all these wonderful benefits to this product we're selling" article.

(Apparently they're technically not a manufacturer/seller, but it's definitely a shill article)

Lol while Micah has certainly written many shill articles, I don't think this was one. There isn't a single product link in the entire article.

At worst he's shilling ebikes generally
