Blog - Dumb phones are not the answer to digital minimalism

I share my experience of why dumb (feature) phones are not the answer to digital freedom.

How do you practice mindful and/or minimal digital consumption? I have a goal of reducing my overall "connected" time and would love to hear what works for others! #mindfulness #digitalminimalism

A few months ago #Unihertz announced an upgraded tiny #Jelly phone; the Jelly Star. Like their other recently launched phone called the Luna, the Jelly Star comes with light strips on the back for.. reasons.

I'm personally not a big fan of LED stuff and try to avoid it when I can, but the Star also comes with much better specs and Android 13. The Jelly 2E definitely felt held back by its subpar specs, even though it's still usable of course.

Started a new book today on my #Kindle. #DigitalMinimalism it's called.

Kinda fits in with what I've been doing lately. (Moving away from some tech, stop looking at the latest and greatest gadgets, even using a feature phone my days off).

I recently #read #essentialism and really enjoyed it. I find these #books often just state the obvious but in a way that needs to be stated. It's kind of like cleaning your room, you know you gotta do it, but if your friend tells you you will jump on it lol.

Any other recommendations from people on books like this? Also finished #atomichabits and #digitalminimalism recently and loved those. Always down for more books!

New video out, today we're talking about why the Apple Vision Pro is dangerous!:

@privacat @onepict : that’s the very point why I use an #ungoogled phone, why I’m trying to be part of the #permacomputing community, why I’m arguing for #digitalminimalism, why I’m trying to shop as local as I can and to support small creators/local companies.

Your argument is a bit like the naive: "You feel the world is bad yet you live in the world, duh!"

Yet you argue than when we manage to create a small space without #Meta, we should welcome their invasion.

Do you see the contradiction?

The #digitaldetox continues. I tend to watch my YouTube subs on kodi via the big TV in the living room. I use the SponsorBlock plugin to skip the self-promotion, but my subs box was just brimming with unwatched videos. Been really ruthless with the cull and about 60 subs has become 10. A lot less content, but genuinely the channels I'm always happy to watch. I can always find the others now & then if I have spare time. Much more realistic. #digitalminimalism #minimalism #distraction #attention

I've been feeling a sense of major digital overwhelm of late. My TV shows had got out of hand, my YouTube subscriptions, the people I follow, the social media apps I use, the podcasts I'm subscribed to. I’ve been having a major purge & it feels great. Today, I tackled my podcasts. From thirty, I've trimmed it down to 9. What a massive relief. Regaining my attention. #digitalminimalism #digitaldetox #overwhelmed #minimalism #attentioneconomy

You may remember my posts about the tiny #Unihertz #Jelly 2E phone I have been using. They've just opened up their Kickstarter (used as a pre-order more than anything) for the Jelly Star; a spec boosted refresh with new transparent back and.. light stuff on it.

I'm personally never too excited about things LED, but I think it's a really good deal for what you'll get. If you're interested, you can check out the campaign page here: http://kck.st/3Pck16G
