Yes. I'm glad there was no glue. Battery was swollen for at least a year until I replaced it. I remember there were three screes holding it in place so there was no glue by design. Wish current macbooks would hold up to this kind of serviceability.

Mid 2012 MBP here. Replaced battery with new one from iFixit 4 weeks ago. There was zero glue so no peeling necessary.

Perhaps the point of failure is not located inside the mechanics at all. I could imagine that dust is not necessarily always 100% non-conductive and might have an impact on pcb traces if their routing is very close (sporadic shortening).

Another interesting test would be heating up those microchips and see if potentially lose pins might be reflowed by this procedure.

curious if existing hardware can be upgraded later. i guess technically it might be feasable but vendors will try to make money and sell new hardware anyway. hoping for open router firmwares...

it does not work on Mac. The regi client is windows only and therefore it's impossible to do real work.

Lower bandwidth... and from one other comment they could be using lower frequencies as well.

Reddit is certainly not a design with simplicity in mind. The sheer amount of links and navigation in general is completely overwhelming. I'd say it's rather a poor design.
