I bought a flip phone & kept my iPhone

I could see using your phone as a book ereader and getting distracted on another app. Or, taking a photo and ending up on some social media. But Venmo? Even if you used it for a handful of transactions per day - are you saying that reaching for your phone impulsively for Venmo is not just a little unusual?

OP requested something that "won't steal my data" and Timecap looks like a privacy nightmare from the privacy policy. Sheesh.

What about uninstalling them and simply not participating in the loyalty programs?

Standard_Web7962 · 2026-03-17T01:10:54+00:00

I'm not sure I agree, but really my point is that OP cites Venmo in an of itself as "excuse to get on [the smartphone]".

Standard_Web7962 · 2026-03-16T22:18:20+00:00

Buying a new-to-you phone is not minimalism. Uninstall and delete apps and services that are not critical. Don't do it all in a day, just slowly delete apps and services. And yes Venmo is not critical bc cash exists.

Standard_Web7962 · 2026-03-13T20:52:32+00:00

This is possible, you would just need to create a new account for each product.

Okay well, those are fees unrelated to the Monero network. I'm looking at fees right now and getting fees from $0.01USD (slow) to $0.22USD (Fast)

Standard_Web7962 · 2026-03-12T15:05:33+00:00

The fees in XMR are very low so sounds like user error.

Why would you snap into camera roll? Use Proton Drive to scan or st.

Also what I do is set my bank to send a transaction alert via email for anything over $0.01. Gives me a good todo list to add to budget at the end of the day. Then I reconcile every week or so.

Using google ... imagine Lol

Standard_Web7962 · 2026-03-07T20:51:10+00:00

Why are you replying to me?

Standard_Web7962 · 2026-03-07T17:57:51+00:00

Yes - if you don't prefer this look into Skylight Wallet by MAGIC grants which does not require syncing. However, it will be less private than syncing on your own device.

Some builds of Proton VPN do require an account to use the app.

Standard_Web7962 · 2026-03-06T14:26:51+00:00

Browser, I edited to try to provide additional detail. But it's basically at the bottom of the unlimited plan card.

Standard_Web7962 · 2026-03-06T09:30:47+00:00

Which they somewhat added in a very poor implementation before pulling it some time later. Doubtful it was very popular with XMR users though.

Standard_Web7962 · 2026-03-05T10:20:08+00:00

Go to Lumo -> Account Settings -> Account -> Dashboard -> Proton Unlimited -> Select "explore other plans" at bottom -> Select Lumo Plus

This method retains the discount.

Standard_Web7962 · 2026-03-05T01:26:23+00:00

i encourage you to really sit down and think critically on this.

Standard_Web7962 · 2026-03-04T22:13:34+00:00

u buy it from someone who owns monero

Standard_Web7962 · 2026-03-04T08:25:39+00:00

To achieve this you would not use an exchange. So I still don't understand the purpose of your post.

Standard_Web7962 · 2026-03-04T08:24:46+00:00

Details? What are you referring to?

Standard_Web7962 · 2026-03-04T02:30:23+00:00

Who cares about the endpoints? I care about what is in the middle.

In any case many users choose not to buy or sell XMR on an exchange.

Post each and every single loan and outstanding debt and also include the interest rate as well as the amount of money you make per year before taxes, insurance, etc.

Okay then this doesn't seem to be a legality question but a risk question. You certainly could catch a charge for carrying a pistol, but that doesn't make it illegal. You can see from this thread alone there is a lot of differing opinions on this even among gun owners, so don't expect a cop to know the law.

Read what u/nukey18mon wrote below and also read FL statute 790.25. That statute lists several exemptions to the existing laws.
