I'm on day 3 of exactly that (deleted reddit, Facebook, reddit, Whatsapp, and Signal, and switched to a dumb phone). No idea how this will pan out, but personally I feel so much better already. I am also significantly more focussed and productive, and am already able to enjoy tasks that previously seemed boring in comparison to endlessly refreshing reddit and the like. I'm also in a country that is not so steeped in technology, and thus not as far down the path of general life becoming dependnet on it. Just think about that - you denpend on big tech for the very media through which you perform the majority of interactions with your "friends".
