I do this already but I'm hoping to get down to 3 hours or less a day. It's hard though because TV and other activities outside of the phone just don't hit like they used to. I think this is a part of the disease of dopamine addiction via social media. It's extremely addictive.

5. Lastly I think messaging apps are a good enough final socal platform.
💠Discord
💠Signal
💠Session
💠SimpleX
They're all free messaging apps that I trust. None of which are attached to Meta, X, or Amazon. Best of all with the exception of Discord they're great for encryption and privacy too.

3. A new app I've just discovered that I'm head over heals for is Pinksky. It's literally an old-school Instagram face without being attached to meta and within the Fediverse. Best if all NO ADS!
4.Tiktok: never thought I'd say that but it's entertaining enough as long as I dont doom scroll.

1. Obviously Bluesky: I really like the old school Twitter feel to bluesky and the demographic is honestly kind of nice too.
2.Mastodon: for real I think I could make it more of a full time application I just need to get more friends on the platform. Having a good overlay like Tusky helps too. ⬇️

With that said I still LOVE to scroll and the feeling of being connected to some what of a community still. So I'm thinking my socials need to be more sparing and specific here's my list of what I'm starting or keeping:⬇️

Well it just seems like they've got hate factions within both sides. To the point to where it's becoming common parlence to seek out arguments and fights over irrelevant things that don't really seek solutions but to grand stand and virtue signal. It gets old.
