  I keep hearing how people are addicted to their smart phones, but according to screen time my usage is at all time low. I think it is because I never got into social medias and doom scrolling. Which makes me think there is nothing wrong with the technology we have, just with the people who use (or in this case can't use) it. You don't need to buy a whole new device if you don't want all the apps - just remove the apps you don't want. You can use your smart phone just like a dumb phone, but you still have the ability to use it for navigation or check something from the internet when a need rises. This feels very much like the trend of "going without phone" few years back. Which just meant that those people constantly begged their family, friends, and coworkers to loan them their phones so they could get things done. You can go back to dump phone, but then you really need to have a computer at home so you can still function and probably also buy a printer so you can again print out maps and QR codes you need.

  Such a thing is unfathomable to me. I remember being frustrated that my $600 digicam only took quite alright-looking photos. You had to reach into the DSLR space at the time to get the good stuff. Those digicam photos really don't have anything like the charm of a Polaroid or whatever, in my opinion!
