I completely agree with everything you’ve said here. I recently deleted my social media apps and it has been enlightening in how my attention span and ability to think and focus had been impacted. I still wanted connection so now I’ve moved to spaces such as this where it doesn’t cause these issues for me. Phones are so powerful but as with most powerful things the drawbacks can be strong. We just need to be aware of how it’s impacting us so we can ensure it’s benefitting us
