    In Finland it’s even rarer, even old people gave up on landlines a long while ago, and nowadays only companies have them. Of course there’s likely to be a few outliers, but the vast, vast majority.

      Oh, no, these people are for sure outliers here too, I genuinely find it odd that I know someone who still uses a landline. They have cellphones but they hardly answer them.

      I house-sat for them while they were out of the country and I genuinely had forgotten how much I hated a voicemail -device- that beeped at you every 2 minutes if there was a message waiting… (I was not about to answer their landline phone… I don’t know who would call them…)
