Whilst I barely used my phone non-productively for great swathes of the covid downtime, usage has skyrocketed in recent months. I commute for anything up to 20hours a week, work in marketing and write at every opportunity.

It’s easier to open an RSS reader than social media.
It’s easier to open a writing tool than a mindless consumption tool.
It’s easier to listen to an audio book than to listlessly doom scroll.
It’s easier to make a wise choice than to choose to waste time
