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

Light Phone 3 (www.thelightphone.com)
submitted 5 months ago by citrusface to c/minimalism
 

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?

$400 ?! Way, what, no, base price $800 ?!?! Interesting niche product, but come on...

800 is a hard pill to swallow. They said that price will likely come down. I don't feel like 400 is too much for a phone.

$400 is too much for a Light Phone. The whole purpose of is to be minimalistic...

I'm cool with that price considering the thoughtful design and projected longevity of the phone. I'm not trying to convince you buy this. It is niche and meets what I am looking for and the price is fair to me.

It's an interesting product. I would be interested to read your comments about it in the future.
