Geodes & Gems

I think they sponsored a right-wing French Youtuber, but they publicly apologised and said they didn’t know his political alignment.

I know the appeal (I think) but I worry that these things can be very harmful after a while, like how with the constant internet access provides constant distraction from anything important in one’s life (like studying, working, etc).

Honestly in hindsight I think that point of mine isn’t very good, given what you said, I mean some people probably buy new Pixels but an entire point should not hinge on a possibility.

Smartphones are such an utter wretch nowadays, & I’m not even sure if there was a time they weren’t. I don’t get the appeal of a smartphone, they do everything a dumbphone does but worse, more expensive & with an unremovable thick layer of scum, yeah a smartphone has some of the features of a laptop or desktop but who needs that baked into their phone for every moment?

People are trying so hard to fix smartphones (even by giving money to the least privacy respecting companies ever by buying Google phones) when they can get a dumbphone and be rid of those problems in the first place. Well that’s my opinion at least, I think it might be a bit extreme.

There are people who don’t care about that? Guess I’m lucky.
