good post jose! I found out about you after researching the lightphone 2 and bought one 3 months ago. I love your philosophy and bought your book. thank you so much for the information and value you provide. it motivates me to continue on my digital minimalism journey and seeing someone who walks the walk is truly encouraging
I definitely agree they serve as pacifiers. I'm interested in how we use them outside of social situations -- when we are alone and sad and we don't want to face our feelings. It's all very complex!
I call the smart phones, "toy computers, with a built-in phone". I gave mine up about a year ago for a Kyocera flip phone and have never looked back.
Glad to hear the Kyocera has worked for you!
Thanks Jose.....
Calling Smartphones "Digital Pacifiers" is spot on.
