@awoo hmmm... yeah but most of y'all don't have conscious memories of the pre-smartphone era, or a world before the 2008 crash. That's what feels so weird about 2003; This clear yet vague perception of there having been a different world before this one.
@VanuPhantom oh I do remember parts of the pre-smartphone era (heck, I used "dumb phones" (how they're called nowadays) until 2015 or something if that counts) and I very vaguely remember parts of the world before the 2008 crash...
@awoo@VanuPhantom I mean our dumb phones were quite a bit different though, hell, my first proper phone already had wifi access but couldn't really be called smart for various reasons (S40 moment)
@ezri@jeder@VanuPhantom but: I still love the idea of hardware keyboards over software keyboards tbh, and I wish that there still were modern well-supported phones with those
@ezri@awoo@VanuPhantom yea, though as much as I like the idea of having a slide out keyboard, I really prefer having it under the screen, easier to type really
