    My phone has been on DnD for over a year now. I have a (cheap) smart watch which vibrates on certain alerts like message, calendar, and phone and I can quickly glance and see that it’s something I don’t care about. I also ignore the calls from numbers not in my contacts if I notice them. In the time I’ve been doing this I don’t think a single person has left a message on my voicemail - validating my actions.

      It’s so nice to feel like tech isn’t running your life anymore. If I’m in an app doing something, it’s because I made the choice to do it. I still gotta work on that doom scrolling tho, YouTube being the biggest culprit. I think I might try setting some time limits.
