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 like them for being able to text and make calls. Otherwise I hate using them - a desktop computer is far easier for me.
Just give me the bloody neurolink already, I'm ready to ascend into the hivemind
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.
I guess so but they are rather helpful still, so...
