Discussion Flip phones

[IGiveUp]

Would you be able to manage going through your daily life with a simple flip phone? Would it be a inconvenience or actually improve your life?

I think my time using the internet would drop like a rock, I guess that’s somewhat good since it would give me a bunch more free time but I’ll be bored out of my mind. Plus things like listening to music or getting directions would be a pain, I could use a laptop but I dislike using them.

I don't think not having internet would incentivize you to do anything good with your time. Most of us are just terminally online because we have nothing better to do. If we didn't have an online connection, we'd probably just do what homeless people do and become drug addicts.

Same, because my smartphone is what I use for interacting on these spaces. I don’t have a laptop or desktop computer.

I like them , find them aesthetic , 2000's was a golden age of phones for me. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_mobile_phone_culture

But it'd be troublesome for me to function without internet
