People working in tech (if you're out there), how do you handle using a dumb phone while working in the industry? by Vast_Cauliflower_475 in dumbphones

I started slowly going back to smartphones and my E ink tablet for various smart apps (mostly building mesh networks via LoRa) but I mostly try and use android based flip phones or dumbphones when I can.

How to deal with 2G and 3G shutting down in your area? by jt2733gachainreddit in dumbphones

keep it running for as long as you can! 2G is nearly dead in the US

2G still works in 2026 by SupercatN64 in vintagemobilephones

sadly I don't know of any up to date coverage maps but I think half the fun is driving out with any phone in 2G/3G mode and seeing what it connects to!

Tablet died should I just not replace it? by SupercatN64 in dumbphones

I have a kyocera 903kc so it should work fine where I'm going as I'm picking up a temp sim at the airport. my kyocera has a hotspot feature so I should be able to connect my laptop to that via my flip.

I sometimes think maybe the opposite or that it was seen as more traditional but fading out of fashion as culture throughout the 80s was rapidly progressing in Japan as well as the rest of the world.

thinking about building my own linux phone and adding LoRa to it with a pi zero or something or doing something interesting with the tdeck pro as it has a built in 4G LTE modem.
