I stopped Twitter and deleted it from my phone to put up an obstacle for myself, and I feel better for sure. Sometimes there is FOMO and perhaps missing “important” news items, but I have more time for things around me.
It is important to recognize, I think, the many flavors of social media and how they can all carry negative aspects to our psyche. Is #Nostr immune, perhaps an anti social social media…? I think not, although most people don’t “humble brag” on here, and many people spread encouragement eg to “touch grass”. I’m the end it is important to have contacts in the “real world”. At least with Nostr there is less of a feeling of being controlled by the algorithm.
