Not everyone can afford a smartphone.

Not everyone can afford a smartphone. Stop making it the primary, and sometimes the only, interface for day to day services. It's like when companies move their customer facing information onto Discord. It's shit. Fucking stop it.

Yes!
And it's not just money. Imagine trying to use a smartphone if you had Parkinson's, or age-related macular degeneration, or mild cognitive impairment. Imagine using one if you lived with an abusive partner who demanded your Pin and punished anything he saw and didn't like. Imagine needing to get rid of your smartphone to help beat your online gambling addiction, and then finding you were locked out of modern society.
We think too easily of new and shiny things, and we forget the people who don't fit the mould, who get left to fend for themselves.

@anon_opin the poor people I know have no laptops, but they all have smartphones. In fact, it is their only personal computer.
