I'm not the person you replied to, but the Fairphone 5 meets their specification list.
As a side note, everything the parent asked for is common on older phones. Asking for them all together is not like asking for unrealistic / unicorn options.

The original Macbook in 2006 had only 512 megabytes
A 512 MB module cost $100-$200 in 2006. Sold in an $1000 machine. 10% of the cost.
And now a macbook air costs order of magnitude the same, but the RAM they're putting in it.... $10-20 (1-2% of the cost).
I wonder if that difference in cost is going to some other part of the machine or into margins?
(I know Apple don't pay retail prices for their RAM, which is what I quoted here, the actual percentage of cost will be lower)

The bloat isn't necessarily the browser's fault
You want me to do busywork so Apple doesn't have to pay an extra $10 for memory on a thousand dollar machine?

You have an interesting definition of success. I suspect what we're seeing here is confirmation bias.

There are limitations with the YubiKey in terms of supported accounts. It can store up to 25 FIDO2 credentials for password-free logins, two OTP credentials, 32 OATH credentials for one-time passwords (when paired with the Yubico Authenticator), and an unlimited number of U2F credentials.
For me, I put my important stuff on the key, the less important stuff in google authenticator. Combined with Microsoft stuff in it's authenticator, duo, ping, and i don't remember all of them but the point is there is A LOT of authenticator apps I need to use.

10 years ago, SHA1 was something you could sensibly store your passwords in.
Uh? No. SHA1 has been vulnerable to faster-than-brute-force attacks since 2005
NIST and most other real security professionals were recommending against using SHA1 since 2010/2011-ish.
Unlike you, I do not claim to be a security professional, but even I know SHA1 has been unsafe for a far longer than a decade.
I feel sorry for your clients.

"Jacob Blake was unarmed"
I think the actual quote most people used was "Jacob Blake didn't have a gun".
But I guess him having a knife was justification enough to shoot him seven times in the back? Or was it because he was a scumbag? Was that enough justification to shoot him in the back & leave him a paralyzed burden on his family & wider society for the rest of his life?
