Imagine you have a phone equipped with just the essentials and the tools you really need. What would your first day with it look like?

Maybe you’d spend the morning reading, head out on an adventure, or simply enjoy a conversation without reaching for your phone. We’d love to see what that day looks like for you.

There are 13 prizes to be won:

  • 5 grand prizes: Mudita Kompakt phones.
  • 8 runner-up prizes: Mudita Bell 2 alarm clocks.

We’re looking forward to seeing what minimalism on your terms looks like. :slightly_smiling_face:

Thank you, @urszula! I was wondering about that limit when I submitted my text yesterday. I saw the counter rise to 300/300 and assumed that I should stop, which I did. But, I tested the ability to type MORE than 300 characters, and that text box allowed it (and still allows it at this writing).

After I submitted my entry, I wondered whether I had cheated myself by limiting it to 300 characters. Now I know that I did the right thing by stopping at 300 characters!

Mudita may be able to force contest participants to stop at 300 characters by setting maxlength=“300” as an attribute of that text-box element.

Here is an example that shows how setting the maxlength attribute (in this example, to “5”) ensures that the user cannot enter more than the specified value (5).

That was a good call. The rules & regulations also specify 300 characters, so it’s safe to stop at 300 & not disqualify your entry LOL
