What phone? Phone’s aren’t usually so repaireable, unless its some old one.

Thanks for the comment, well haha I guess its easy to not to choose these proprietary enshittified sites and applications when I am not under peer pressure, suppose that’s one great advantage of being lonely - I was suggested dating applications as well by an online friend and I was like hell no lol.

I don’t drink nor smoke, I appreciate your perspective and advice!

I am paying with the data they’ll use for advertising.

People who are willing to use platforms like that are going to suffer in long term and ethical internet is an important value for me. From what I read, meetup.com is already enshittifying so I am not missing out on anything.

I appreciate the suggestion but I don’t like sites that profits from human interaction.

Haha the first part of the question is quite a Reddit-like question, better to ask how pragmatic or fanatic one is in usage of free software.
