what dumb phone do you use?

and why do you want wikipedia in your pocket, but not a smartphone? where do you draw the line?

(doing a lot of work in that area, so i am asking to learn from someone who might think alike)

I use the Mudita Kompakt specifically cause it allows sideloading so I can still have a few extras. Right now I have Kiwix and Libby. It works really well.

I have a $10 a month plan from US cellular with only 2gigs so I try to keep everything offline that I can.

Honestly it's mostly the news... so I draw the line at browser, I'll never install a browser, that's basically something I can do when I sit down at a PC. I read quite a bit and I like to have the ability to look up a word or a historical event or some reference from something I read using Kiwix and it's been great for that, just needed to add a 512gb micro sd card. And Libby I just use at the gym when I'm on the treadmill.
