Laptop: Macbook pro m1
Tablet/notebook: Remarkable 2 and Supernote Nomad
Reader: Kindle paperwhite 5
Watch: Apple Watch 6 and Mudita moment
Alarm clock: Mudita Bell v.1

My goal is to get rid of the apple watch and only use the iPhone for my ID-app (which is a must here in Sweden, unfortunately) and money sending app.
Iām not sure about keeping the Remarkable either. I recently got a Supernote Nomad and than one is much more useful and portable, and I do want to keep the number of devices more minimal.

I realize I have a lot of stuff. Itās everything I require for my job as a software engineer and product designer. Aside from the gaming stuff, I use all these devices daily.
There is more than one approach to digital minimalism. Itās more nuanced than Big Tech is bad.
I choose my devices based on the utility they offer me, instead of if they are mainstream or āminimalistā.
Many of the devices others have listed come with significant tradeoffs:
- Garmin Watches require with subscriptions for some features
- Boox, Bigme and other Android devices have ridiculous amount of telemetry and do not offer any privacy. (Phones with degoogled ROMS are different of course)
- Linux lacks nearly all of the design and photo editing applications I use
- Basic watches donāt offer offline maps and activity tracking that I use when running or hiking.

Looking at the replies here really paints a picture on, who are the target group of Mudita and these niche devices.

I completely agree with you, han. I donāt think there is āoneā way to digital minimalism. Thatās partially why I created this topic thread, so people can both show off their proud collection, but also get an idea of how it looks for different people. Also, so people can discuss, learn about new devices they hadnāt heard of or wanted more information and make suggestions.
I hope as people make changes, whether that is replacing devices, adding or removing devices or listing devices they are currently interested in owning or are researching to add to their collection, they will re-visit this topic. I find it interesting looking back at how peopleās collections have changed as well as new collections being added (Iām already seeing how my collection has changed and itās cool seeing the slow transformation).
Digital minimalism to me is not based on how many devices you own or use, but how much control you have over your digital life-- and that looks different person to person. Not only by what devices work for you, but the kind that do.
Like you mentioned, a few of those were work-involved and not necessarily personal use. Whereas for me, all my devices are only personal use.
I really like what you said here.
For Garmin, they have a lot of optional things you donāt necessarily have to opt-in for or allow. Depending on the model, I thought subscription was optional.
And de-googling your BOOX is totally possible, but youāre trading convenience (Play Store, app sync, etc.) for privacy and control. You can replace Google Services with alternatives & disable or Avoid Google Apps & Services. Still, of course this depends how each user uses their Boox device. For me, itās simpy a way to browse the web and do things that donāt include sensitive information to lower eye strain. Any sensitive or important information isnāt on this device.

Hi, I was curious- are you still using LibreOffice? I was torn between that and OnlyOffice. Iām currently moving away from Google Docs, etc. and trying to find a good alternative.

No, I went back to Apple Pages after returning the two Kompakts and, after all the disappointment and time spent, I decided to have devices and systems that work seamlessly without losing more time. I cannot edit my initial post here, but Iāve sold my iPhone 11 Pro Max and now I use the iPhone SE from my company, which is almost turned off all the time. I can answer SMS and calls on my Mac, having close to zero contact with the phone. I also added a Pocketbook to my list because of the e-ink screen and long battery.
I tried OnlyOffice before all this, and I found it much more accessible to work with than LibreOffice, including compatibility. Therefore, you can give it a chance without any problem.

Ok, Iām only going to list devices that I regularly use and that seem relevant to the dm-lifestyle (I also do posses an old VCR somewhere that I only use once a year to watch āDie Hardā on x-mas but that is another story ^^').
Soā¦
Whenever I leave the house:
- Kompakt
- LINSOUL TINHIFI T3 Plus Headphones
- 90ās Swiss Army watch (wearing a watch really helped a lot with detaching from my phone! same with the alarm clocks, see belowā¦)
At home:
- ThinkPad e490 running Ubuntu (+peripherals: rotten old logitech keyboard & mouse, 27ā screen, Focusrite audio interface & Palmer speakers)
- Philips 32PFS6402/12 (32 inch) TV (I use it as screen for the ThinkPad for watching movies or playing games when chilling in my bean bag) + some cheap speaker boxes + PS4 controller
- Tolino Shine 3 e-reader (I rarely use it since I prefer paper but it is neat for traveling or reading with the lights out)
- Stereo: Marantz amp + Pro-Ject record player + Teac tape deck + Teac cd player + Phonar speakers + audio-technica headphones (ATH-M50x)
- stereo setup for the kitchen: nice old SABA speakers from the 80ās + some cheap no-name pre-amp + even cheaper bluetooth dongle
- a bunch of old seven-segment display alarm clocks I bought for a few bugs on ebay and placed in every room so I never have to pick up my phone to check the time

No problem! Well, in the future, if you ever like to āupdateā your list, just make a new post with your updated list of devices youāre currently using 
Itās kind of nice seeing changes made through time. As you can see throughout this thread, Iāve done it myself a few times.
Thanks for letting me know! I know that Infomaniak allows use of OnlyOffice and was thinking of going that route. Without a current desktop set up, I wanted to be able to use OnlyOffice without downloading an app/desktop version, but instead, accessible through browser-only. Iāll try it out and see if this works for me! Feel free to comment if you have used or have knowledge about this method.
