Same here. I set my main ringtone to silence and only a few contacts can actually ring my phone. I disable almost all notifications and my phone's on do-not-disturb from 10-7 every night.

Maybe my laptop needs a hosts file to block "infinite" sites. Of course, I'm on one right now...




The inability to selectively enable (rather than individually blacklist) contacts, and specify a do-not-disturb block, are two of the most significant disadvantages of going to a flip phone I've encountered.

My compromise is to simply leave it off much of the time.
