Stumbled upon this article about the rising popularity of dumbphones.
Hope this community starts getting more traction :)
As for my journey, I am still on a “dumb smartphone” phase, an old phone with only Whatsapp and Spotify. I’ve been considering making the switch to a dumb phone or at least a candybar smartphone like the Qin F21.

I like the idea of separating my phone from my internet/social media/email/slack connections, but the reality is that I would rarely need a dumbphone at all. Like, I could probably leave it in my car. I just don’t call or even text that many people anymore.
For me, it makes sense to add calling and texting to the small tablet I carry with me everywhere.
