I quit social media for three years, and a year or into it, I was doing things and not thinking about sharing online, and it was amazing. That’s what I miss the most.
The solution to minimizing my digital addiction has been using external control, namely apps and such, to spend less time online. Fight fire with fire.
Once you experience the blissful offline world, it is hard to want to go back to spending way more time than one would like mindlessly browsing the internet.
