RULES (updated 01/22/25)
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling. To be concise, disrespect is defined by escalation.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible. You won't be punished for trying.
- Avoid controversial topics (politics or societal debates come to mind, though we are not saying not to talk about anything that resembles these). There's a guide in the protocol book offered as a mod model that can be used for that; it's vague until you realize it was made for things like the rule in question. At least four purple answers must apply to a "controversial" message for it to be allowed.
- Keep it clean and SFW: No illegal content or anything gross and inappropriate. A rule of thumb is if a recording of a conversation put on another platform would get someone a COPPA violation response, that exact exchange should be avoided when possible.
- No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc. The chart redirected to above applies to spam material as well, which is one of the reasons its wording is vague, as it applies to a few things. Again, a "spammy" message must be applicable to four purple answers before it's allowed.
- Respect privacy as well as truth: Don’t ask for or share any personal information or slander anyone. A rule of thumb is if something is enough info to go by that it "would be a copyright violation if the info was art" as another group put it, or that it alone can be used to narrow someone down to 150 physical humans (Dunbar's Number) or less, it's considered an excess breach of privacy. Slander is defined by intentional utilitarian misguidance at the expense (positive or negative) of a sentient entity. This often links back to or mixes with rule one, which implies, for example, that even something that is true can still amount to what slander is trying to achieve, and that will be looked down upon.

With clever thrifting, I can get an entire wardrobe for maybe $30... For clothing that is new or new quality.
And I'm a huge scrapper, the the brand new winter coat I'm wearing was found in a dumpster
That is simply not going to happen with a quality phone
Food
Approve. Also I love your name
Thank you! 😊
The phone. Then I paint an Apple logo on it and sell it for 2 million dollars. Then with that money I can buy many clothes and many phones
(actual answer: clothes, my current phone still works after like three years so I see no reason to change it lol
If the new phone is some fantasy device that fits NY exacting requirements, then sure, a new phone. But I would sooner have some more clothes, and for the price of a new phone, I could afford some decent quality stuff.
I don't really care for clothing beyond the point that I'm sufficiently covered and not cold, but my phone's screen is broken and the battery is dying, so I'd take the new phone. It would cost the equivalent of several years of clothing purchases, anyway.
This is an easy choice here for me. It would be clothes. I'm not planning on changing my phone soon (at the very least 2-3 more years to go with it), so a new phone would just be dumb here. Good clothes on the other hand will always be useful at some point in time, even if I don't need new ones right now.
If some magical genie pays for it, clothes. My phone is not expensive, but clothes are pretty hefty priced these days.
clothes, more is better.
Clothes. My current phone has a few years already, but because all the new phones are huge bricks I'm not in hurry to get a new phone. Also it took me many phones to finally find one that is compact, smooth, has a clean interface and doesn't require service visits every few months (Xperia Z1)
Neither, really. I have enough when it comes to both.
But if I absolutely had to choose I'd say clothes, solely based on jeans: I finally found a type I actually like (as opposed to "meh, good enough", which has been the standard most of my life) about a year ago. My preferred jeans can only be found at Target, and I live in Europe.
Oh mate that's so far away!! 😢
Neither, really.
Don't care much about either. My phone does the job for me and I have enough clothing to last me to the end of my life. (You know, about six weeks.) (I jest.)
I just got a new phone, so clothes.
New phone would be nice, this one started to show its age. I still wearing the cloth i buy years ago.
My phone is getting a bit old whereas I've got plenty of clothes. I don't need either though.
New clothes since I barely even use my phone 😂
How is that possible in today's age??
Dunno but I've always been more of a PC person! 😅
Meh, clothes are literally worthless to me. The thought of spending more than 30$ on shoes or a shirt is ghastly
I find if you buy cheap you buy twice, $30 shoes sound like they wouldnt last and fuck your feet.
I’ve been rocking 9$ goodwill converse and 16$ clearance rack new Nikes for around four years. I do currently have an insole thing in the converse cause I stand all day for work but overall it’s been fine
Phone. Clothes don’t do anything except cover my bits and unless it’s cold who cares?
I've been buying lots of new clothes lately so I'd absolutely love a Pixel 9 Fold but I can't justify the price tag when my phone works fine and has relatively similar specs.
Someone else just brings the stuff to me? In that case, definitely the clothes. I hate shopping for them, it's always such a chore, even if you don’t care about style and just want high-quality, comfortable ones.
Definitely new clothes. I usually get hand-me-down phones from my brother and have the iPhone 14, it’s still suits every need I could have and will for several more years without a doubt. I have recently been revamping my style and closet so some free clothes would be amazing! Haha
No reason for a new phone, but there are some new shirts I'd like and I could use some new pants.
I don't have a phone due to the lack of use for one, and I'm not big on clothes (and don't need any), but I guess clothes.
