Phone left pocket on it's own (to prevent scratches). Keys, wallet in right pocket.

If I'm not feeling either of those masses or a key jingle then I know I'm missing something.

Are you left handed ?

[–] Gork@lemm.ee 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Nope, right.

[–] BuboScandiacus@mander.xyz 4 points 4 months ago (3 children)

Then why put your phone into your left pocket ? To perform a half macarena of shame everytime you get a call ?

[–] Zorque@lemmy.world 8 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Just because one is right-hand dominant doesn't mean one has to use that hand for everything.

Personally, I do the same. Probably because I had a wallet and keys before I ever had a phone in my pockets, so its habit to put it in the unused one.

I use my right hand for everything. I just can't do anything remotely precise with my left hand. I can't even write with it. The only activities I can do with my left hand are assisting my right hand (for example holding somerhing long).

...Which one though?

[–] flambonkscious@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 months ago

The right. I thought so...

[–] Gork@lemm.ee 2 points 4 months ago

That's the reason for me as well. Always had wallet and keys in my right pocket, then had to find a place to put my phone when they became a thing. So it ended up in the left pocket.

Keys always go in my right pocket, and I don’t want my phone to get scratched.

[–] eezeebee@lemmy.ca 2 points 4 months ago

I'm right-handed and use my left hand to hold my phone. The right hand is for more important things.

[–] Eheran@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Same here.

[–] tiredofsametab@kbin.run 2 points 4 months ago

Same except keys are clipped on a belt loop and I have a handkerchief with my wallet in my right front pocket (Japan is super humid so a lot of sweat-wiping happens). Also right-handed, but I hold my phone with my left and enter the passcode with my right hand (I don't use the fingerprint scanner)
