About us

An open, user owned community dedicated to the philosophy of minimalism and the minimalist way of life. All types of posts are allowed, as long as they are relevant to the topic of minimalism.

Rules

1. Be honest with yourself and others.The goal is to develop yourself personally and as a community. Seriously, if you’re not honest with yourself and pretend to be someone else, you’re not going anywhere. The first step to progression is acceptance, isn’t it?

2. Be polite to others and respects each others opinions.Your freedom ends where somebody else's begins. Remember that there are people that may see things differently than you.

3. Keep it theme-oriented, up to date and relevant.In general, all types of contributions are allowed, but the relevance to this community must always be evident and presented openly by the contributor. Posts that do not meet these requirements will be removed after a public warning.

4. Use self-moderation measures first before reporting.This community is fundamentally built upon freedom of speech. Since everyone understands minimalism differently and we do not want to exclude any kind of content a priori, we appeal to the individual users to block/mute posts or users who do not meet their requirements. Please bear this in mind when filing a report

So, I preordered the Light Phone 3? I considered the 2 for a while but it is just to clunky with its eink screen, texting would be a nightmare.

What are y'all's thoughts on the new design? Do you think minimalist phones are worth it?

Love to see it, I want more phones like this, idk I almost want a Light Phone with a microSD card slot for music/documents/files.

I know that goes against the whole super simple, less is more theme. However. I like options & I think every single phone should have expandable memory. Even Apple. When that feature isn't present in a smartphone, that is the company ripping you off.

The ability to take pictures & store them on a microSD card. Back up your phone, files & settings. Anything you want...and that phone can consequently fail or be destroyed, but you extract that card & you've got what you need? That feature is cheap to implement, that security is priceless. And that is what companies have stolen from all of us.

...anyway. Other than that, the 3 looks great. Love the small form factor & everything about it. I'm almost willing to buy it, anyway. I'm sad they don't have microSD, I am disappointed but I'm not surprised.
