I’ve had periods where I’ve been using dumb phones, or 4g dumb phone with limited functionality.
I’ve always reverted back to a smart phone because the friction without one becomes so huge. Getting on a bus, transferring money to friends, your 2FA for bank services… It all needs your phone or else you need cards and dongles and whatnot. I was hoping that a 4g dumb phone with KaiOS would be a good compromise, but I’ve landed on that for me to be able to participate in society I need a smart phone. So I turn off all notifications, and have chosen to use an iPhone for the sake of simplicity. It just works. 🤷♂️
