Unpopular opinion here:
I don’t mind the Non-replaceable battery. Since battling my phone addiction, it holds up strong.
I use the iPhone 14 Pro.
Half a year ago I’d have charged it by my lunch break because it would’ve dropped to 20%. Now I’m typing this with 92% battery remaining.
I also don’t care about the charging port. Yes, it sucks, but if it wasn’t for the headphone jack adapter I would not use it. I’ve been using induction charging ever since the first Galaxy Fold.
Okay, I agree with that shops stuff.
What I really care about is the right of repairability. You can’t use things from another iPhone because in their database they have to manually remove the screen/battery/camera/cable/whatever from your phone and add the serial number of the new part.
Like, if I order (overpriced) replacement parts for my iPhone 14 and I use those parts to repair a friend‘s iPhone 14, that fucking piece of shit throws and error unless some magical fuckery of a workaround is made.
Naive question, how did you battle your phone addiction in simple terms?
I found myself using my phone a lot more after the pandemic (from 1.45-ish to 3-ish daily) and I hate myself - less than 1h would be more than enough for healthy usage in my case :(
I did it by accident actually. I stopped social media because I just never used it that much, not even lurking.
I use a lot of Adblock, even YouTube still gets blocked on my phone if I open it via the browser, so I use this to open YouTube. I got a new number this January. In February I deleted my cookies. Google sends a code to your phone via message, if not, you a code a month later via mail.
Haven’t used YouTube since.
And then came the Reddit stuff and no more Apollo and there goes that.
I use it now for Duolingo and music and Melvor Idle

Certainly not a naive question!
