I want a phone where I can’t go on the internet or read the news, just communicate with people I actually know in real life. Is there any way I can make this happen?

Can you really not understand what the OP and I are trying to say or do you just want everyone to know that you know the right terminology and we don’t?

I think the OP is a silly nostalgiabrained hipster who doesn’t understand what he’s asking for

I think I know why but sure

some combination of “I keep going to websites I hate and getting upset about the things I look at on them” and “Remember when phones were just phones”
