I like doing things that have a purpose.
This bulky piece of cheap plastic adds zero functionality and doesn’t achieve anything other then making the phone bulky and silly looking.
With that thought process most people wouldn’t get haircuts or buy different clothes. Everyone would just wear black. People like expressing themselves in different ways. Most phones use cases regardless. If I 3D printed a version for my phone, since it’s an iPhone SE, it would still be smaller and less bulky than most people I know.
I assume you’re not going to have a fun time in this sub, so it may need to be one you block.
