Do you prefer to wear a smartwatch or a regular watch? (lemmy.world)

Would love to know what you guys think and your reasoning for it. I'm starting to see a lot of Apple Watches/Fitbits/Galaxy Watches in my area compared to more traditional timepieces.

I enjoyed having a smartwatch back in the pebble days. I was kind of addicted to notifications (especially from datadog) at the time. My Pebble time made me feel less stressed because glancing at my watch was less effort than pulling out my phone.

Then Pebble was killed off, web-scale infrastructure became more reliable, and I learned to recover from my notification addiction. Now I'm happily watchless again.

Have you looked into Rebble? I'm still wearing my Time Steel as a daily driver. I've yet to find a newer smartwatch that hits all the features I care about.
