Fairphone is expensive. You can get a used Motorola G7 Power and flash /e/ on it, if you like. Just need to find one is OEM unlocked, or know how to unlock it yourself.

I don’t use any “big brother” services. At work, it’s a different story, I guess.

I wish that the internet was removed from every day reality. Or at least I wish it wasn’t so invasive and obligatory.

Honestly, this makes me happy to hear. I wish I could meet people and make friends like I used to before everything got enshittified.
