> My last home was filled with smart home tech and other stuff, now I live in a completely analog old home which is nice (and much smaller!).

"Tech" does not last. I like things that are durable and last. Solid hardwood furniture, a light switch that only closes a circuit and doesn't contain microchips, something built out of metal instead of plastic, etc.

I'll still buy new laptops and smartphones, but not "smart" things.
