Does anyone else here not use smartphones? I don't get the point. It's locked down, can only use social media, and dies in 2 years. I don't need the internet outside. I don't get why normal cattle like selfies so much.
>>83270751I spend 200 on a phone I'll use 10 hours a day for the next 5 yearsIt's a rather good deal if you think about it
>>83270768I spent 150 on my pc and it'll run linux for decades
>>83270751I use a phone because it's more comfy. My gaming chair is a metal folding chair.
>>83270796Yeah and your phone is about to be loaded with government spyware apps
>>83270810I use graphene os. I'm not some retarded normgroid with an iPhone.
Same here, it's like a computer but really crappy. Tiny screen even on the bigger phones, obnoxious touch-screen controls, extremely locked down. I'd rather way until I can get back on my budget laptop from 2012, which is leaps and bounds better than any existing phone.
>>83270751I only switched to smartphone last month when the internet at home wasn't working. My dumbphone's battery barely lasts one day too, so I guess it was time to change.I can now browse /r9k/ and play chess at work, take pics of stuff I build and watch Youtube. Other than that, I'm still the same weirdo who doesn't use facebook and doesn't answer the phone.
>>83270751smartphones are a honeypot,its just a overpriced neutered version of a desktop computer that is worse in every way functionally. abhorrent appstores + programs, games are a steaming pile of shit, microscopic touch screen, touch typing is atrocious due to 0 touch feedback so navigating keys intuitively is impossible, bad website interfaces/support.the only redeeming factor is the decent specs, which you can't even change usually, not to mention the irremovable batteries.battery life is not an argument because you should not be using computers while moving, if you can't even access a power outlet you have bigger problems than not being able to browse 4chan.there's no real reason to use cuckphones if you have any respectable amount of self esteem
