Anyone knows how the usage is being estimated? What is the expected lifespan and how does one come up with a carbon budget there?

Plasma 6 Bugs
If you encounter a bug, proceed to https://bugs.kde.org, check whether it has been reported.
If it hasn't, report it yourself.
PLEASE THINK CAREFULLY BEFORE POSTING HERE.
Developers do not look for reports on social media, so they will not see it and all it does is clutter up the feed.
@phoenix Regarding the assumed operating life of devices:
"For the purposes of our assessment, years of use, which are based on first owners, are modeled to be four years for macOS and tvOS devices and three years for iOS and watchOS devices. Most Apple products last longer and are passed along, resold, or returned to Apple by the first owner for others to use."
Hope that helps!
Also a good point, this isn't to knock products like the Fairphone since they're offering extremely long product support windows, which should drive down demand for new devices and reduce their carbon footprint.
