When my phone was up for renewal last March, I specifically went looking for an iPhone 13 mini, because I’m sick of my phone being the centre of my attention all the time. And it’s worked. The smaller screen means I’m far less likely to get it out and idly scroll the socials, instead waiting until I’m at my Mac or have my iPad. But the screen is still big enough for GPS and such.

In terms of socials; I’ve been pretty much all in on Mastodon and Lemmy, having gone from posting twenty times a day on Twitter, to posting just six times in total. And that was to spam my Mastodon account.

We ditched Netflix in April, and haven’t missed it at all. I signed up for it the very first day it was available for Apple TV back in 2012, so it felt weird getting rid of it. But ultimately, Disney+ feels like better value, so we’re on that for now.

I have Apple Music, which is fine for in the car or while I’m at work, but I spent an awful lot of time listening to my library of ripped CDs on my iPod when I was out and about. I got the iPod in ‘22, but finally got it flashmodded early last year, and love it.
