    I tend to keep them around tbh. Sometimes I install random shit on them or use them for funny projects. I only miss one because it broke completely. The other 2 old phones are still here. I also don’t buy a new phone every year so maybe that helps

      I still have my old phone since it has at least one paid app on it that was removed from the Play store. I can’t download the app I paid money for to my new phone, but I can still use the copy installed on my old phone.

      Realizing this has completely dissuaded me from spending money on apps, but that’s a whole other thing…

        Yeah I have the same with Rollercoaster Tycoon classic. I spent money for it and really enjoyed it, but instead of patching that version for newer phones they just released a “new” version that’s compatible with newer phones. I should’ve expected this from Atari, but damn it’s so scummy
