What Did People Do Before Smartphones? - Lemmy.world

Recently started using a LightPhone II when out of the house, and I found the article captured my current experience pretty well. It’s not so bad to be bored sometimes.

Read the back of schampoo bottles while on the toilet.
No podcast while doing chores so radio on constantly instead
Newspapers or books on trains or buses to pass the time
Queues were death

Queues were death

They still are for me and my phone can’t help it, oh but one of my favorite Chinese handled can!
