Things where better when the internet was one spot in your house. Not in your pocket at all times

I've been very seriously considering a dumb phone.

I recently got a small basked a little larger than my phone. I put my phone in it when I get home from work. It's a good example for my kids and it helps me to actually be present with my kids instead of being on my phone half of the time.

You were on your phone half the time? Damn

[-] camelbeard@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Not literally, but way too much, and I didn't even realize how often I grabbed my phone without even thinking about it.

Do it. Stop writing about what you would do on your phone.

Here's an idea: get an old phone supported by lineageos and just don't install any apps or even f-droid. This is essentially a modern iphone 1(the first). Not totally dumb but dumb enough to not be a distraction.
