I don’t get that “minimalist phone” market I can just get an older phone, remove all social media and use it

You can’t remove lot of apps in most Android phones. I have an older phone S7 Edge which I installed an alternative Android OS called “/e/OS”. Its way more private by default. Besides all the benefits of privacy, I also do not use the Google Play Store and do not have any social media on it installed.

The issue. You won’t be able to get old phones when theyre gone. Just like cars.

How much older? Obsoleted 3G days? 802.11b? I’ve bought enough used products that the Carriers and Network advances made irrelavent within a year-or-so of my purchas already, TYVM.
