minus-squareObi@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 months agoI guess we could use the term “swappable” here as a distinction.
minus-squareBigPotato@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·2 months agoI’ll accept that compromise. Now I’m more curious if the batteries are hot swappable though. It’d probably cause some chaos with the battery indicator but just making me think…
