    I keep saying it’s not the smartphone. It’s the social media people are constantly using on their smartphone.

    Reading a book all day? Great!
    Reading all celebrity gossip, and what your “friends” say they’re doing? Not great.

    Reading stuff like this all day isn’t great.

      Yeah, I don’t use any other social media except lemmy, and in honestly thinking about replacing it’s location on my home screen with something to read that’s better for my mind.
