I’d like to get a dumbphone and stop using smartphones, but i’m forced to rely on the latter for work and finances and various things that really shouldn’t be limited to just existing in mobile apps but are. How practical would it be to use a simple dumbphone (i’m currently looking at a Light Phone II) for calls and do everything else in an Android or /e/OS emulator on my Linux computer? Has anyone else tried this before?
Yep it’s possible and some people do it. At least on Android . Android studio will allow you to download specific emulators and you can install from thee. Device divers like audio/camera will be dependent on the base is and config so that’s a possible downside.
