At some point in my life new technology started adding problems to life instead of managing them.
I’m surprised the cooling unit doesn’t have a system that’s just state (on/off) and desired temperature, and that the enshittification subsystem controls the cooling at all.
I suppose they probably have it possible to adjust cooling remotely - I could see how that could go wrong.
But yea, letting it control cooling is stupid.
My fridge from 1958 is still working on the original parts, has only ever had the seal replaced
No firmware update required
Yikes, and I thought I hated my LG fridge with the stupid compressor issues 4 times in 5 years across 2 fridges.
Linear compressor?
