Wondering what your take on this is.
I keep loved ones. Seems like they are not gone, to a degree.
I leave them in if it’s someone i care about. I lost a school kid last year. Took his files out of my drawer today.
Apparently I delete them. I could think of one person I’ve had the phone number of that died 10 years ago or something. I don’t have their contact details anymore.
I’ve not had any close family die the last decade so that answer may change.
lol. clean out my contact list. so funny. like im going to get rid of the old number people I know used to have.
Absolutely I delete them. Can’t have that kind of evidence lying around, loose ends sink careers.
I saved them, adding death anniversary so I could remember them. Bit morbid but they meant a lot to me.
If they had a significant role in my life I’ll leave them and add a yearly calendar event so that hopefully they don’t die the second time, at least while I’m alive.
Same.
deleted by creator
I don’t think I’ve ever deleted a contact from my address book for any reason whatsoever
I add the ⚱️emoji to their name.
Makes them easy to search for and stop to have a moment of reflection on their effect on my life.
That’s a nice idea
Funny how some cultures are different, as in mine this is a horrifyingly normalyzing idea
does it get more normal than death?
Yes, consistently and by a lot.
I got confused and then realised it was a cremation urn. Funny how some cultures are different, as in mine Cremation is uncommon and burial is common
Both of my parents are dead. It looks like I deleted one and left one.
I let it stay untill I am ready to delete it.
When my grand parents died I kept the entry in my phonebook untill one day some time later when cleaning up the contacts I didn’t see a reason why I should keep it.
I let it stay.
It is weird when someone that uses the number joins signal though… I want to reach out to them because I miss my brother but its a good reminder that life marches on with or without you. And we should let the ones who have left, go.
😥
I have another address book I move them to that is a archive for past contacts. Past work contacts etc… never had to go back to it, but good to know I can. Also don’t have random people I have not contacted in 10 years still on my day to day address book.
