Found the actual device if anyone was wondering, the uConsole. Not a phone sadly

[–] Disabled@burggit.moe 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I honestly, genuinely, unironically would buy this phone and use it as my daily driver.

[–] nobody@burggit.moe 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I would do the exact same to be honest. I have been looking into some of the "dumb" phones even tho they are smart, like those flip phones from japan etc.

I really want a dumb phone, or atleast a privacy-oriented one. Was looking into possibly getting the Pinephone Pro, but I'm not 100% sure on it yet.

You could try pixel phones with grapheneOS

[–] Disabled@burggit.moe 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I've thought about it, but the GrapheneOS dev seems more and more unhinged the more I hear about him, not a huge fan.

Here's one example of how the dev conducts himself: Youtube Link | Piped Frontend Link

Yeah, I'm really glad that I didn't get a Pixel. Because I was going to get it for this very reason. Having software releases controlled by a schizo does not appeal to me at all.

[–] Disabled@burggit.moe 3 points 2 years ago

Sucks, because GrapheneOS seems like a genuinely good piece of software, and probably one of the most usable Android-based OSes out there. But I just can't go forward with it, knowing how the dev seems to repeatedly make more and more enemies. I do not feel like I can trust him for the software to remain as good as it currently is in future.

Was kind of looking into something like this too: https://skysedge.com/unsmartphones/RUSP/index.html but I worry about potential compatibility issues with my area; however, I'd definitely be interested in it.

I say it makes a bit more sense than that /g/ phone...

Ooh. I think I know what one you're talking about rofl. That giant assed phone with like 50 knobs and switches?
