Is everyone here talking about corded handsets when they say landline?
I’m my country landline doesn’t exist anymore. Now you need to plug a headset into your modem for VoIP. Landline was the direct copper circuit in the ground. You can’t bring back a technology that has been decommissioned. That’s like saying Gen Z is bringing back the 2G mobile network.

For the most part, I believe in the US at least, that land lines are all VOIP but still referred to land lines because they are hardwired at a set location. Similar to how the internet was on dial up, DSL and fiber but it’s all called the Internet.
