100% agree. We had to turn it off because it was too frustrating for everyone involve. Now we’re at “trust, but verify” where “verify” is looking at Screen Time stats at the end of each week. My only plausible explanation is that no one who

I think the ideas presented in the article are interesting, but at times the Notion references were a bit much. The author disclosed that they work there, fine, but at times it felt like it was more about showing off a Notion feature (e.g.
