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.

    Yeah, like ostensibly there are alternatives to 2FA which do not rely on a phone, but they’re not nearly so easy to set up, and there’s potential for a lot of woe stemming from user error, even if your work stuff facilitates them. They’re apparently more secure though, so maybe you can persuade your work to go offer the option on that basis?
