Hey friends: phone recommendations?
Truly, I just want something that
1. doesn't track me
2. has a decent web browser
3. can make phone calls + do sms
4. has a halfway decent map app
5. will last for several years

Oh gosh, friends, I'm just completely overloaded right now. 😵

pay attention to the news in these times and see how many little the political and capitalist classes are held to task for their systemic failures and how often their subjects are taken to task for not engaging with capitalism "correctly".
