Locked out of 'God Mode', runners are hacking their treadmills

I see. Pre-Covid I used to have my phone with me more often, with the whole WFH situation I don't really see a reason to use it since I have other devices in my home that give me a better experience (larger screen, physical keyboard, good speakers etc).

I treat my phone like I do Google. Every day I try to be a bit less dependent on it. I usually don't know where my phone is, physically, and only use it for banking and car navigation. I use WhatsApp through the web interface. I dream of a world without smartphones.

yeah I am like you, I even tried a PinePhone because I hate the current mobile OSes so much. (Unfortunately PinePhone is not 100% ready to be a daily driver though). Then COVID came, I haven't commuted for 2 years now and I stopped caring about phones. I carry my phone only in the weekend and only if I'm out, not if I'm e.g. bbq-ing at home.
