As a side note, a hobby/hack I've found recently has really helped me decrease screen time. I need to work a lot due to job circumstances, so I thought I could not afford screen off time. But one thing I picked up is writing in a

Call me dull, but why don't you just build an android app and buy a Fire Tablet to power your project. A Fire Tablet is probably on par for power and is fully integrated with a touch screen and battery, and with discounts it costs almo
