You don't provide any more information, and are promoting your own site here without even saying so despite your name being on the About page. This felt like clickbait.

Many dumbphones only support technologies (2G, 3G, etc.) that are actively being deprecated at the moment. If you are using a modern one, you still get rid of many useful things li…
