Can I use a Froyo device in 2019?

I can't stop looking at my smartphone. So I was thinking of getting a less-smart phone. I want something that can competently text and also call a Lyft and found this ancient Froyo Android. Will I be able to get Lyft onto a device this old? And will it be a security hazard somehow? Details inside.

Basically I want talk, good texting, and Lyft. It would also be nice to have Audible and music and podcasts but that's not a deal breaker. I would be willing to root it if I had to, but I'd prefer not to.

(By "good texting" I mean has a QWERTY keyboard, either physical or digital, is able to handle group text and MMS, and has threaded messages.)

If this phone won't work because of security/Play Store access, and you can recommend a different semi-dumb phone with Lyft and good texting that would be great too.
