it’s true that iFixit is a for-profit company, and which website isn’t? I would struggle to find a reliable info site that doesn’t find a way to earn something to keep their servers up.
I have no affiliation with them and I speak for myself that I believe their contributions to the right-to-repair movement shouldn’t be dismissed.
They provide resources and tools that help people like myself to repair their own devices. I’ve successfully resurrected my dad’s old macbook using their guide. I did this without purchasing their advertised tools (they are massively overpriced)
IIRC iFixit actively advocates for legislation that supports consumer repair rights. While they do profit from their sales, their mission to spread repair knowledge and promote environmental responsibility is still a net positive for the tech world.
