The only downside is that it's not really supported anywhere at all yet. But I do hope it becomes a real thing some day.

AFAIK there are a lot of talk about making GNU Taler the basis for the 'digital Euro' which is curently being debated at the EU Parliment.

AI may have its uses, but the easy counterpoint to your argument is to look at FTX at its peak and where it is now (bankrupt). The stock exchange is the exact opposite of rational, and is terrible at estimating the use one can get out of tech.

In Europe, next year, every phone will need to use usb-c. Since you're probably not using multiple phones at once, having more than one charger is a waste of BOTH ressources and money. Having the charger separate BUT with the price included in the phone's (because let's be realistic, there is no such thing as 'free' in the mobile market, just fees you don't see) would just raise the phone's price for everyone (including myself).

So I'll have to disagree. Having the phone NOT bundled with a charger is fighting both an economical and environemental waste.

Lineage is the oldest one (Divest and /e/ are forks of it). Calyx has a focus on security and privacy (comes with a free VPN with no signup requires). Currzntly Calyx is based on Android 13, even on the Fairphone 4 which doesn't have it supportes. I son't know enough about iodé to comment about it though.
