This is me, unfortunately. I need to get rid of this urge, but it's s damn hard. I'm glad I banned phones from the bedroom, I really seem to be able to fall asleep much better, most times. But in all the other scenarios, that's me, pulling out my phone to have something to do. I can't even remember what I used to do while waiting for stuff. Then again, I've had smart phones for the past 13 years, so that's pretty much all of my grown up life.
- beefield 7y agoBuy a dumbphone with wifi hotspot. Remove sim card from smartphone and use it only over wifi. Consider which apps you actually can use on web browser on your computer instead of your smartphone. Leave smartphone at the office/home/car unless you really need smartphone with you.

- donkeyd 7y agoYeah, this is the type of stuff that gets in the way. Also, I really like the fact that modern phones have great cameras. None of this is impossible to get around though, I could get a small camera and there are alternatives to Google Auth.
