A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I tried and tried again. Even had time Punkt phones. Tried a new (at the time) KaiOS phone: it came with bloatware and 3 months in was no longer supported for upgrades. Plus, the software was clunky and battery life was similar to a smartphone.
Why would I want FB and Twitter and demos of non-free games on a feature phone?
The Punkt had Signal, but messages were delayed by up to 2 hours.
The Mudita phone (which I didn't try) has not received any rave reviews.
I wasn't asking for much at the time. 4G, no bloatware, calls, text, contacts... Luckily I was able to resell all of the devices and recoup some cash.
