Try visiting a not ugly state like California.

But how does that help capitalists make more money by eliminating their competition?

This article seems to omit the most important fact about headphones - how do they sound?

I love repairability and all, but it hardly matters if I don’t want to use them in the first place because they traded off too much quality for repairability.

Piracy links? Yeah, sure.

Archive links? Like OP said, even corporate Reddit allows those. The risk to a Lemmy instance from allowing this is literally zero. There is a rule of lawsuits among lawyers that you always look for the deep pockets because you can’t get anything from a lawsuit if the defendant can’t pay. There is no way Lemmy.world would be sued for this before Reddit, which actually has money to pay with. That’s even setting aside the notion that linking to archives could be found to constitute copyright infringement.
