I had a dumb phone until around 2011 and I really miss not staring at my phone all of the time. The only thing that gives me pause is my family sending links via text. I’ve tried other ways to limit screen time but if it’s there I’m gonna use it.

    Thank you for this. I would add, given the literal engineering for addiction, for at least some people, “just tune your notifications” is like telling an alcoholic “just don’t drink so much.”
