    You probably shouldn’t look up what most solder is made with, then.

    Lead never went away, and it never will. It just stopped being put in things like gas and paint.

      Leas-free solder is now the standard due to RoHS, at least in Europe. It doesn’t stick as well as Pb-Sn solder though, annoyingly.
