At Shul, We Drink Single Malt: On “A Fortress in Brooklyn”

Technically, as I understand it, neither do the Amish. They have opposition to uses of technology that they feel undermine the social, and particularly family, structure. This may result on bans on technology which is seen as prone to such use and for which there isn't a combination of positive use and prescribed manner of use that adequately mitigates the problem (the exact boundaries of which differing between different Amish groups.)

* Religion is supposed to define almost every aspect of life and culture.

* Unlike many other Jewish and Christian movements and communities, both groups emphasize visible, conscious, active separatism from surrounding cultures. (Whereas other orthodox Jews not uncommonly wear clothes typical of their neighbors and work in secular cultural vocations, like secular university teaching or even being the host of Jeopardy.)

* As a sibling comment pointed out, having lots of kids is encouraged.

* There is a process by which local authorities can interpret the rules, and their interpretations are binding on their communities. (If you don't like them, you need to leave the community to be subject to a different community's interpretation.)

* There are different communities with different interpretations and traditions, but, within certain parameters, they may respect and accept each other, intermarry, cooperate in various ways, and so on.

The hasidim do also regulate the use of technology by their members (this article alludes to Internet restrictions, for example), but maybe on a "default allow" rather than "default deny" basis.

It seems like the Amish prioritize keeping their communities based around certain kinds of work (farming and small-scale crafts and manufacturing), and also keeping them rural. Hasidim have made a switch to urban (and, as the article notes, suburban) living.

My impression was that this isn't true? It's at least true of some Hasidim, maybe Satmar was different.
