make it a less pleasant experience

it’s designed to be additive so don’t blame yourself, it doesn’t help. deleting instagram helped me. sometimes i go on the browser but it’s a less pleasant experience so less addictive. i redownload when i want to post and then delete again. annoying but worth it. my phone is getting old so my battery is going bad. this helps because i’m more inclined to only use my phone when i need it to keep it from dying. resist taking a charger every where you go if your phone is the same. been following this writer/artist/screen time activist (?) and she has some cool thoughts on the matter: https://augustlamm.substack.com/p/you-dont-need-a-smartphone

️the one sec app

something unique about me is that I need to be on my phone less. this app has been the most helpful deterrent for some reason...don't want to spoil how but every time I want to open instagram, for example, I have to do something humiliating like "exercise patience."

THIS AND PINTEREST, MAKES MY BRAIN HAPPY

i didn't realize how much of my time was wasted on my phone - everything i was consuming was straight anxiety juice. pinterest is peaceful and i love it on here, i don't spend hours on either and it's a nice little check-in when i feel like it

The excitement when you got the chance to DJ and the feeling of absolute dejection when people didn't like what you played. Shut down because of copyright — whoops! — but I think there’s a reboot that recently came out recently, don’t know if holds up
