Have You Ever Considered a Dumbphone or Do You Currently Use One? (beehaw.org)

I had a dumb phone until around 2011 and I really miss not staring at my phone all of the time. The only thing that gives me pause is my family sending links via text. I've tried other ways to limit screen time but if it's there I'm gonna use it.

I've used multiple iPhones over the years, as well as Android, but I've moved to a Nokia 105 4G, with just calls and text. Can't be happier. My old 2020 SE is only switched on for banking 2FA and GPS, otherwise it's asleep in the cupboard.
