This is one reason why I have been resisting signing up on various mobile chat apps like whatsapp. My family and friends use it and they get shocked when I keep refusing to sign up on these things. I do feel excluded from various online chats but for anything important, they text, call, or email me. So perhaps it is not too bad. I end up saving time by avoid gossip and funny videos.

Exactly, I am not using Whatsapp, I used to use it one year back but then again not much important stuff happened on Whatsapp, it was the same story everywhere, people ignored me outright, only called me when they needed help and never otherwise. That is why I left whatsapp, it has been a remarkable experience, https://www.goodreads.com/user_challenges/4336854 https://www.goodreads.com/user_challenges/4336854 I read around 12books this year itself, https://medium.com/@surajp/i-crippled-my-phone-too-1300761aabf5 https://medium.com/@surajp/i-crippled-my-phone-too-1300761aa... It is a relief not looking at the phone every minute of the day despite the fact that nothing important is going to be communicated via whatsapp, or nothing of that significance to me, everything that I really really need to know comes to me via call
