I’d like to rely less on my phone so that I don’t do the ritual where as soon as I wake up I’m doomscrooling on my phone, do you know of any cool, minimalist but with some features alarm clock out there?
As an inspiration this is a web site I like I’d love if it’d introduce an alarm clock because of its aesthetics and philosophy:

Get yourself a regular alarm clock if you want to rely less on your phone.
“When you’ve got a phone, every problem is an app”.
Agree, just buy an alarm clock.
If it’s for waking up at a scheduled time, why not go with a dedicated alarm clock that only needs a wall plug and maybe a backup battery?
what device are you connecting to an online alarm clock that doesn’t have one built in?
why more than double the things that could go wrong by requiring an internet connection, router, etc in addition to your non-phone device?
I would just use an old phone, either yours or maybe from your family. A dedicated alarm clock that stays at home and is always charged. It has only one job: alarming. No need to make yourself dependent on a random online website. This can be done offline.
If you leave the phone on the charger for years, the battery will swell up and split the case or crack the screen.
Sounds like bunnie would have got you, but that was half a generation ago:

I like this one because I can shake and flip over my phone to snooze and dismiss the alarm. Comes in handy when I’m in bed and just slap the phone or just shake it while still in my pocket to turn it off
I prefer this one:
