#OptGreen: Eine nachhaltigere digitale Welt ist möglich https://www.oekotest.de/sponsored-content/Opt-Green-Eine-nachhaltigere-digitale-Welt-ist-moeglich_15613_1.html > Laptops, Smartphones und andere Geräte werden schnell "alt". Dabei spielt Software eine große Rolle. Oft bekommst du nach 3-5 Jahren die Meldung, dass dein Gerät die Mindestanforderungen für das neuste Update nicht mehr erfüllt. Oder eine App, die du installieren willst, benötigt ein Update, das dein Gerät nicht unterstützt. Das ist ärgerlich, besonders wenn das Gerät eigentlich noch funktioniert. #KDEEco #KDE
