Hey folks,
This may not be the best place to ask this but I'm curious if anyone has thoughts.
I would really like to have a phone with very very few functions,
I want to call, and text. If possible use WhatsApp and signal but that secondary.
I'd like to be able to open and store files.
Thats it. I don't want to have access to a map, to a search engine, even to the camera but I do want to be able to interact with the system of the phone.
I've looked into and tested some flip phones but i find that they are just pretty poor quality in general and allow for no control. I can't open files or even remove access to bad maps or very bad search engines and app stores.
This has led me to here to this general ecology of linux phones and ubuntu touch.
I'm I headed down a completely wrong rabbit hole by exploring here?
