"If there is one thing the iFixit story proves, it’s the power of
perseverance—or stubbornness. As we commemorated in our 20th (global)
Anniversary post, “For all the change and the challenge, we’ve managed to stay
remarkably ourselves.”

Stubbornness is Kyle and Luke fixing a broken iBook G3 without any repair
manuals in their dorm room, using only harvested replacement parts. But it’s
also Matthias Huisken and Matthias Mayer, who started iFixit Europe, pestering
the aforementioned iFixit founders with emails enough times to get their
attention, and ultimately their support, to establish a European subsidiary.

10 years ago this summer, iFixit had a proven track record of providing
high-quality guides, parts, and tools, a lively online community, and was
capturing the interest of tech geeks worldwide with in-depth teardowns. As
supporters of the platform, Matthias Huisken and Matthias Mayer were convinced
that the mission behind iFixit needed to go international."
