It started with me opting not to keep smart lights when I moved. I found the routine of pressing physical switches more rewarding than the tap of a touch screen. I've since gotten into vinyl, and film photography. I still stream music, and I still take photos with my iPhone when it's more convenient, but I find the physicality of analog devices uniquely rewarding.
@Gargron I’m moving. It has been very difficult to find “unsmart” appliances. I don’t want a Wifi oven.
@sepfeiffer I feel like TVs are the biggest offenders in this category. I went the far more expensive projector route just to avoid getting a smart TV.
@Gargron hmmm… and I was planning to throw my 20yr old tv away and go “smart” when I move. Maybe not. It still works great and I stream with an Apple device. Thx.
