I don't advocate for dumbing the phone. Take away the dopamine hits, or limit them to "play" time. I use facebook, reddit, twitter, mastodon, in Chrome - not as apps. Both from a security standpoint and the notification standpoint. But I have the Washington Post installed. There are moments when you want real time information coming through....

For games: chess, go. always ask yourself what you are gaining from what you're doing....
