This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Yes, the option to just throw it in the corner and not charge it anymore.

Or to uninstall all your shitty apps.

ITT awful fucking reasons for "smartphone good". Fuck smartphones.

Yep. Ignore your downvotes. They're just zoomers with Stockholm syndrome.

A standalone camera would be a better camera. A standalone media player would be a better media player. Emulation handhelds are better gaming systems.

Paper-weights don't even have batteries. Checkmate, phones.

Phones are useless for anything but making sure you're abiding by your state-mandated privatized surveillance of choice and if I could carry around a tiny Linux laptop with cellular integration and use it instead, I probably would.

I get not everyone can use Linux, but I feel that's a misunderstood problem in that, it isn't my problem that you can't do something.

Anonymous does have valid points. The devices and internet all released with the governments blessing, for tracking and spying.

Well this is the cold hotdog water of hot takes. Ill guess anon wasn't alive before smart phones.

How does everyone everywhere having a really decent camera ruin photography? One of the things we had to do in photography class was use a disposable to take well composed shots (but also we developed the film ourselves). A phone camera would make those look way better.

The gaming sectors always makes me hurt the most man.
It has taken over conventions too so there is little a way to avoid it entirely.
