@9to5google why not to buy a Russian branded phone at this point? it's the same as buying android or IOS or any other freedom taking trash OS

@patricus What is there, if not iOS or Android?

@menelion just buy a dumb phone. it's the same as android and crappleos anyway now.

@patricus I can't, I'm totally blind.

@menelion I'm blind too, bruhhhhhhhhhh there are talking dumb phones.

@patricus Really? Could you give a couple names please? Because to be honest, I'm tired of touch screens.

@menelion there's blindshell, there are those phones using kaiOS, it's mostly accessible AFAIK from a podcast,

@patricus Blindshell is impossibly expensive, given its characteristics. Like 800 euro for a 512 megs of RAM?.. I mean...

@menelion look at kaiOS then. there are still dumb phones with that thing.

@patricus I will, thanks. Definitely heard that name but have no brain associations with it.
