- brainchild-adam 4y agoHow do you manage w/o a phone? Some of our bank accounts require using an Android (or iPhone) app, for example. Messengers like Signal don't work w/o a smartphone. COVID-related apps for traveling. I could continue. Genuinely curious.

- aliqot 4y agoI don't use or carry a phone. The long and short of it boils down to things working just the way they do with a phone, just more human involvement, like requesting a paper menu, or handing someone money directly. You make plans to be at a place at a time, then you just show up.
- jjgreen 4y agoNote really an issue, I've never had one. Banking is mostly on paper, sometimes I phone them up. Not bothered with messengers, travelling in the EU, there was always a paper-form alternative for that. The main upside is the looks of disbelief (and occasional panic) when you respond "don't have one" to a demand for mobile number :-)
