This spring, clean your gadgets. Clean your tech. Be less gross in 2024. It's one of my aims. Alongside our anniversary stories this month, were also in a spring-cleaning frame of mind. Were cleaning AirPods and digitally decluttering the PC. (And if youre physically decluttering, how about making a bit of money simultaneously?)
