I’d just get an old Samsung Galaxy or something (back when they had removable batteries) and flash Postmarket OS on it. Probably cheaper than a new feature phone, and you can still have smartphone functionality in case you absolutely need it.
That makes sense. Infact I found Graphene on handmedown PIxel4 a very practical option.
However, it is the update creep that worries me. Every few weeks you have to update PostmarketOS and the fatigue may lead you to give in and join the mainstream Android stuff. So, instead of going the route of minimizing software surface, I think it makes sense to reduce phone dependency by adopting a more practical hardware option.
