Gen Z here.
Do people really not have wallets now? There’s so much I can’t carry without a wallet, most importantly my ID. Am I expected to just put that loose in my pockets or bag?
And like, sometimes I’m forced to carry cash for one reason or another. I need a space place to put that.
I’m guessing it’s just because the majority of my generation isn’t old enough to be regularly encountering these issues. I’m 100% certain it’ll change as they age the way I was forced to.
Born 1980. I don’t have a traditional wallet, but I do carry a combination card holder (which has my ID) and money clip. I think some people are simplifying that to ID in pocket and all payment methods on phone (tap or app).
Generations are mostly BS anyway. Carry a wallet or not according to your needs and preferences.
Don’t worry just buy this wallet removable card holder that attaches to your phone but comes off so that you can keep it separate when charging or putting it down, or trying to hold it in your hand without a big bulky thing that keeps popping off.
And don’t worry, the magnets no longer affect your credit cards just, hotel keys, cheap gift cards, bus passes, etc…
Yeah sometimes classic ways are still best or you find you really don’t need something you give up for efficiency, just do you and it’s fine.
Always found those funny because now if one thing gets lost/stolen you’re substantially more screwed. Although if you only carry one card and have tiny pockets, I get it.
This is why those phone/wallet combos are stupid. I don’t blame people for using them, but phones are easy to swipe as people stare at the screen. If I had my phone and wallet stolen, would be screwed.

Reddit gets the weirdest comment upvoted sometimes? Might be bots? Or maybe the tweet is made up because I had a hard time finding that thread.
Assuming no maliciousness, upvotes are not the equivalent of truth votes, but what people want to believe is true or think probably is true.
And make no mistake about it, Lemmy is no different. Might even be worse when it comes to voting along ideological lines.

They have those card holder sleeves for their phones, which is essentially a wallet on a phone
That’d interfere with my wireless charger…
Don’t worry just buy this
