I’m due for a new phone and I’m strongly considering going to a dumb phone with a tablet around the house for browsing. I can carry a Kindle or something to kill time waiting for a train.
Question for the thread*: are we at a point where we build apps that chew through ad/user data, but put ourselves in a position to not have our
data chewed on?
*Mostly asking because I have come across this sentiment before, not because I think op(s) are engaged in this
I'd do that but a smartphone is unfortunately a great pocket camera. The sweet spot for me would be something like a modern version of the Nokia N95 — great camera, unrestricted OS that lets me write apps in Python or whatever, and terrible web browsing experience.
