> A smartphone without social media is a tool. A smartphone with social media is a prison. Smartphones are a dopamine feed regardless. I got a modern Android smartphone only after deleting my Facebook account some years ago, and I have no other social media.

I had to make a rule that at home, my phone would never leave the kitchen.
