My dad wanted to get a new #Macbook as his had stopped performing well.
I wanted to convert him to #Linux but felt it might be a step too far at this stage.
Instead I got him a new battery and installed it using iFixit’s really easy to follow guide and his machine is now back to full efficiency.
In the process I swapped out most of his standard applications for #FOSS ones and he’s adapted really well. ✊
Really glad I’ve helped him #REUSE rather than buy new. https://ethicalrevolution.co.uk/reuse-recycle/

@ethicalrevolution This is such a lovely reminder to do our best to extend the lifecycle of electronics. It’s not always possible, but every little bit helps.

@ethicalrevolution this is a true story:
I was IT for my family, and when I moved to Europe, my mom decided to learn and installed Ubuntu on her old computer by herself.
I am the proudest daughter!
