Smartphones are making us unhealthy, miserable, antisocial, and less free. If we can’t yet nationalize the attention economy, maybe it’s time to abolish its primary tool — before it finishes abolishing us.

        And what does it have to do with smartphones?

        You said they make us “more social”. I said they don’t.

        You think that “social media” is “antisocial”? Well, then write it as “ban social media”

        Also acceptable.

          So you used to hang out with your friends and share articles and comment on them in person then upvote/downvote and moderate? ok sure whatever you say…

      Not all social media. But we know what you are talking about. The clout culture and instant gratification is what ruining them.

      Banning one would only create thousands of copycats. And don’t think they won’t come here, if Lemmy, Mastodon or Pixelfed gets popular.
