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.

something really satisfying about the thought of de-googling a google phone lol. I wish I had thought to do this with my old pixel. it was giving me problems but the T-Mobile guy said google just stops supporting them after a while.

Ironically, because of its security features, GrapheneOS only supports Pixel phones. Very tail-eating snake territory.
