The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

it depends on the pants and how tight fitting they are. if they’re tighter i’ll usually have it in my rear left pocket. occasionally i’ll put it in my front right for easier access.
Both my phones are in my right front pocket. I carry way to much crap on a daily basis..
Keys are in the left pocket, phone is on the right pocket. Wallet is either in jacket's pocket or right back pocket of my trousers.
I used to be the same, but I had to switch sides when my fat body interfered with the Bluetooth connection of a pair of headphones I had. That really isn't an issue now, but I'm just used to phone on the right side now.
Non-dominant hand holds your phone, so that's the pocket side where your phone should live.
EDIT:
A few people seem to be confused because apparently they use their phone one handed right from the start when it comes out of their pocket. With the size of phones these days i would guess that most people aren't using their phones one handed that way.
Personally I'll use my phone one handed if I'm stationary and after it's fully out of my pocket and securely in my hands, but if I'm moving around it would be drop-city if I just pulled it out of my pocket one handed and started tapping on it.

Same. Right handed, phone left, keys and wallet right.
Phone front right, wallet & keys front left. Knife location varies depending on clothing.

Front left for phone, screen inwards. Nothing else but phone.
Keys in left, phone in right, wallet in back right
The phone pocket. IME, pant manufactures put it on the right. If I wear pants without a phone pocket, then left pocket because wallet/keys are in my right pocket. When I use to wear pants without a phone pocket, it was inconsistent what went where. Just tried to keep phone and keys in opposites.
Front right pocket for my phone, right back pocket for my wallet and left front pocket for my keys.
My pocket, duh.
