Guys just pay for a good app-blocking app. You don't have to get an entirely new phone to do this. They work great.

I've been getting my family into lora. It's nice just having Ubuntu that texts. I still use my phone for mobile connectivity as a hot spot but apps are largely going un updated, and their silly ads unviewed.

Obviously not the solution for everyone but damn its freeing if you can.
