Omgg !! Yess, someone also joining !! This movement makes me feel so positive and definitely helped with starting the year right, in my opinion <3 I also invested in a cheap thrifted CD player (i had one but it's broken uuh!) and an MP3. Also definitely playing more on my old DS too and finding way more time away from any other medias, i feel like there is a hidden posibility for most of us to slowly heal, as crazy as it might seem lol, so it gives me hope truly. Happy New Year and happy journey in going back to physical medias hehe !! :)
hii tysm! ive cought myself still doomscrolling every once in a while but ALOTT less and usually when i have nothing i need to get done anyways, using a flip phone has been rlly helpful to me plus its fun to call on lol

Same for me and nice to hear about the progress :D !! I've been seriously thinking about getting myself a flip phone too (i definitely agree that's such a goal considering how my younger self pictured life back then and how better it might feel to use one, as you said!!) Can I ask for how long have you used yours ? And what model is it by chance ? I was wondering how efficient that is. As i'm trying to position myself on the model choice, i find the recent ones to be pretty big in hand and I'm not really into touch screens flip phones either cause that's not the goal at all to carry this burden into it again.., though i admit they have a lot of qualities when it comes to the unlimited access to every needed apps we could think of...! So, i thought about going for a one that has essentials only like emails and messages. (and seems a little smaller too, so more practical i'd say!) Yet i'm a bit scared that i'd feel forced to switch up after a while, cause I usually like to feel free to check a few apps like the bank one, or my internet track at least. I've been wondering about the extent of emergency situations it can cover up too hahah (maybe i'm the anxious type) Like how sustainable it is considering how much I wanna move away from home etcc.. considering i'm ready to use the 'home computer' to not depend on my phone obviously! I would gladly hear about your process when you chose yours! Have you noticed how the design of old flip phones are so much cooler and way better than the recent ones !!? :P They don't do them like that no more,, uuh shame! hahah (so sad, cause now most countries will end up switching to the 4g/5g network and none of the old ones are compatible with it :( let's cry together lol)
