  • I was already on my way out of reddit before the API pricing changes, but not being able to use my choice of app was the final nail in the coffin. I had noticed just how much time I was spending looking at my phone doing nothing but scrolling through stuff, reading things I didn’t care for. I spend so much time looking at screens as part of work, recreation, and socialising that I knew I needed to drop my usage. Return to monke.

    Using federated services after going cold turkey for about 2 months, I now have a much healthier relationship with it. I like how its smaller and I don’t get the feeling of missing out on something if I wasn’t constantly checking. I started feeling calmer and generally happier.
