Not related to this post here, but personally I've chosen to go the dumbphone route because I'm sick of the expectation of needing to be avaliable 24/7 amongst other reasons

Yeah I agree that expectation to be available 24/7 is honestly suffocating, especially for people who require alone time to recoup energy.

    I have always had a dumbphone and it has been amusing to see the typical reaction change over the years.

    07 - 15 Oh, so you're broke?

    15 - 24 Where did you even get that? How do you live?

    24 - 26 Wow, I wish I could do that.

    I find there is a need for digital minimalism in simple living. Or at least to not keep with the digital maximalism that is pushed to us in today society.
