I want so bad to just get a light phone II, but too many parts of my life need something from a smart phone, end to end encryption on my messages (signal or other similar apps), banking apps, even my job requires a few apps. I could maybe carry both around and use the smart phone as little as possible? But seems too much of a hassle sighs
I regularly live with a dumbphone. All it can really do is makes calls and text. Its only difficult if you give a shit about social media and chat apps. I don't so its easy
I dont own a computer. My whole internet access is through my phone. It's necessary for me
I like them for being able to text and make calls. Otherwise I hate using them - a desktop computer is far easier for me.
My uncle doesn't have a cell phone and he has to borrow everyone's phones all the time and it's gotten to the point where people are just refusing to let him borrow their phones.
Just give me the bloody neurolink already, I'm ready to ascend into the hivemind
I guess so but they are rather helpful still, so...
