This is absolutely what I need. I was so shocked when I checked my screen time and saw how many hours I've wasted on those "stupid" apps. But I am also hesitated to try that because of FOMO. What if my friends talk about some trendy/funny on the Internet but I can't catch up/follow?

Do things away from your screen in the real world and form friendships around that.

An addict with addict friends needs to find non addicted friends to escape the addiction.
