The things with a grid of holes and a little spinning blade that removes pills from furniture and fabric. I keep buying $10 shitty Walmart ones and they die after a few months.
Any brands etc that aren’t enshittified yet?

Get something called a “fabric comb”. It’s what my grandparents and great grandparents used to depill all their clothes, including delicate wool and cashmere, and that’s what I stand by. Cheap, come in different sizes, tooth ranges, and no need to change batteries. Hard to enshittify that.
Find an YouTube video to show you how to comb different grains/types of cloth with it. I was taught by my grandma, but it’s pretty easy once you know what you’re doing.
I have a black and green Conair one that has lasted longer than the cheap stocking stuffer ones you usually can get for less than $5 or $10.
Like 3+ years long, but maintaining the threads and such that get wrapped around the middle spindle and not using it for more than 20 - 30 minutes at a time I’ve noticed helps the motor last longer.
A manual model with metal screen and blade will last forever and they’re generally cheaper than the electric kind.
Do those really work? I hate pilled clothes.
