Never!
I have never bought a phone new, I have an old Samsung S9.. checks emails and web browsing works fine... it can even make phone calls! battery is a bit past it's best, but an overnight charge lets it last a full day. What more do I need?

I was using Vivaldi browser for a long time with Ublock Origin... no ads for crap I won't buy, suddenly I get the "3 views left" message. Clearing the cache and updating Ublock worked for a week, but now it's unusable. Switched to Librawolf, all good again.
Watching ads for crap I will never buy is wasting my time and theirs, if things get worse I will give up on YT completely... then they will be sorry!
I got a 2009 imac for a silly price on Ebay, got it working on El Capitan, used Open Core Patcher to install Ventura, works well but a little slow opening apps, will replace the spinning rust with an SSD soon, that should help.
There is a nice Youtube video that walks you the install, step by step... works well, but I thought my machine was stuck in a boot - reboot cycle... after about 40 minute if finally arrived at the bootscreen :)

After many many calls from a firm asking about the accident I never had (once 3 times in the same day) I asked to be removed from their list, when they called again a said "I hope you get cancer and your children die in a fire" For some reason they never called me again... was it something I said??
We did in 1969, the landings were in the middle of the cold war, you can be sure the Russians tracked the Apollo capsule every inch of the way, any fakery would have been headline news in Pravda.
Someone put the laser retroreflectors on the surface (they can still be used today)
