    I see someone is late to the nostalgia-bait articles party… You know that dedicated music players are still a thing now? You don’t have to always use a fucking iPod.

    I do like iPods mind you but there are better modern alternatives if you want a daily driver. It’s nice that they want to talk about solutions for people who want to get away from their phone I guess, but a 20-year-old device is not the solution for most people.

      Are there modern alternatives without a touchscreen? I bought a FiiO M11 a long time ago and I do light it but I would much prefer a no frills, purely button (or wheel) control player. Ideally, I could put Rockbox on it.
