I'm starting to worry that cell carriers are using their 3G turnoff as an excuse to arbitrarily narrow the range of devices that can be used on their networks.
With the result that a *lot* of people are going to be forced to replace perfectly functional devices, so they can use cell calling. Creating a huge pile of totally avoidable e-waste, and an equally huge opportunity for carriers to sell panicking customers a new device locked to their network.

@strypey I am affected by it. #telenor #sweden is closing the 3g my phone cannot make phone calls. I called their support, they don't even have a public list of phones that are compatible they just tell you "buy a new phone at least post 2022, and even then avoid #Xiaomi, #nokia, #motorola, #pixel, #oneplus (and a tones of other brands the guy started to list me), prefer #iphone, #samsung"
