I've done the neckbeard thing for a while now: never had a smartphone, no Facebook, etc. I do have a Google account but it's restricted to the max and all features like Google Now and shit are disabled.
But fuck /g/uys, it's painful. It's an obstacle in my social life, my career, general productivity...
At what point should you just give up and bend over?
when you have a social life, career and things to do
if i actually had any friends i would have a facebook sure

social life, career, hobbies < integrity

You need to ask? Really?
Google now is smooth as hell, son. Letting Google store all your history and shit makes it so user-friendly. All them apps too.
Can't believe you're even asking this.
Honestly you should just limit yourself to snapchat.
You don't have to share much personal information. You can still share interesting things and view.
This is also a great way for friends to easily contact you.
All other social media is not needed.
Seriously name one thing snapchat can't do for you socially. It also maintains a level of privacy.

you won't be successful or get laid by using technology
that's just what they want you to think so you spend $80 a month on a smartphone $70 on internet access, and hundreds on DSLR cameras for selfies. let's not forget the mac you'll need for 'media editing' your selfies and posting on your $2000 facebook machine's namesake site

If the only way to have friends and meet new people now days is through a corporate medium then there is no one left worth meeting.

does it have a desktop/browser client?

Yes, if you have an android phone.
iPhone linkage is in the works
I never liked smartphones, but I've become accustomed to texting thanks to my brother who never picks up his phone. It also comes in handy at work. Facebook is also one of those things that comes in handy when a distant family member gets cancer or some shit. You can turn off automatic response emails, and politely hide posters who post every time they have a thought. If you are a NEET shut in, there is no reason for either of these and you wont miss them one bit.
