I still have a landline. Number is unlisted so I don't get the bullshit spam calls and VERY few people have the number. I did it because cell service here SUCKS and the power goes out on a weekly basis and YES I still have a phone that requires no external power source to work. The only drawback is that with the new fiber optic garbage they put in a few years ago, it only works for a few hours before the battery in the box outside dies and when that happens so does my landline. I can however, hook the generator up to power the house and that charges the battery.
