Mine died literally 1 week ago, and I've been trying to figure out what to do ever since. I used it for basic notifications (SMS/Calls), my morning alarm, and for calendar/medication reminders. I'd already decided I wouldn't get another fitbit, but having it was central to my routines. I'm tossing up between an Amazfit which seems to be based in NL which would be a plus (in addition to Gadgetbridge support), but I've also just been given an (older) iPhone, so a refurbished Apple Watch has some appeal. It comes at the same time my S10+ has decided to slowly grow a spicy pillow, and as much as I would like to get a 2nd hand Pixel(for Graphene), I just don't have money for one. I'm not a huge Apple fan, but I dislike them less than I dislike Google at this point.
