@rachaelspooky and yet all this e-waste does nothing to raise the bar when it comes to hardware capabilities, despite the fact the average phone lives at most 3 years, we have to suffer with (especially graphics) API support anywhere from 3 to 10 year behind desktop platforms, because apparently mobile vendors love to ship garbage SoCs based on 10 year old orphaned IP.

Meanwhile, on PCs, a 12 year old AMD gpu still gets the latest and greatest vulkan features in radv/mesa.
