I've never really understood people spending hours on a phone. I get fed up and move to a computer. At the very least, it's got a bigger screen and a keyboard, making it easier to respond to a post than the phone does.

I recognize that it's a problem for a lot of people, and I'm sure that OP does too. Because it seems like they're arguing for purposefully using a phone less. They're describing a different way to choose to be.

Big screens can be addicting, too - but not being portable helps it be less available 24x7 and makes the problem less visible to those around you.

Do you track your screen time using an accurate/unbiased method like an app? Big screen wasted time may be much higher than you assume.
