I used to spend hours a day scrolling even when I knew it wasn't doing me any good.
I started deleting my social media apps and just visiting them in my browser and it actually makes a huge difference. Because the browser interface sucks it reduces the urge to keep going. I've become way more intentional with my social media use and it's so freeing 😌 https://medium.com/simple-straightforward/this-is-how-to-do-digital-minimalism-without-resorting-to-deleting-every-social-media-account-4f1fecf5d2b4

This Is How to Do Digital Minimalism Without Resorting to Deleting Every Social Media Account

Really appreciated this article. Social media can have some positives, but there’s something to be said about putting down the phone and appreciating and living in the moment

I agree, although this shift is still in a very initial stage. More and more people are recognizing the toxicity of these platforms and are moving away from them. Some completely and others partially (it's common to do 30-day no social media challenges like people do with drinking or fitness routines). Brands too are recognizing this trend and some are leaving social media as well. I think that we will see a slow but growing shift away from these addictive apps

I agree with you 100%! Social media takes up too much of our lives. We need to put it away and live in the moment. I don't want to be on my death bed regretting the time that I could have been living but wasn't because I was too busy trying to go viral. It's just not worth it.
