As little as possible. I text and email people when I need to, I don’t have Instagram or TikTok or anything of that nature. I do occasionally look at videos on YouTube, mostly music but a couple of politics-related ones.
By and large, I refuse to go down the social media rabbit hole– partly because I’m of a particular age and it doesn’t interest me, but mostly because it can be such a huge waste of time and energy. I prefer to frustrate the algorithms, or just ignore them. They’re probably not meant for me, anyway.
There’s such freedom in simply putting the phone down. It can be an act of rebellion or sheer will, or at least a bit of respite from the noise.
