I swear I used to have more time than I do now. Sometimes I wonder how much of the reason why is my phone.
It's so easy to lose a half hour here and there to mindless scrolling. Now, it's OK if you don't feel guilty about your phone usage—we all get to decide how we want to spend our time on earth, and no one should feel guilty for scrolling if that's what gives them joy. I, however, frequently find myself feeling absolutely nothing while scrolling. I'm getting nothing out of an activity I'm dedicating hours to daily. I wish I was using that time to learn things instead.
As it turns out, I'm not the first person to think this. There are plenty of apps that can put your phone addiction to work, allowing you to learn new things during what would be downtime.
