Ha, yeah we're in a really weird space right now where our tech is awesome and terrible. I wonder if it will get better. It would be cool to have like a feature phone but where the features are at current tech levels (and include maps), but there are no random notifications to manage, no social apps (instead of requiring you to have the discipline not to install them)... idk.
- scottndecker 6y agoThe LightPhone is working on getting there. I've been using it for about a year now as my primary mobile.

- duggable 6y agoI read a blog post [1] the other day about someone who was using their Apple Watch as their primary "smart" device. Aside from pictures (and maybe a few other features?) you can effectively have all of the utilities of a smart phone without the temptation to get sucked into the device. I've been slowly transitioning to this and have been enjoying it so far. It doesn't really help with the notifications, but you can effectively cut out most of the noise via basic iPhone settings.
