notifications are a big part of the problem, and indeed using RSS/Atom feeds for everything with custom notifications allows you to get notified only for what you need.

But I've got the impression that they aren't the only problem. According to a study from 2020, the average smartphone user unlocks their screen 110 times a day. Taking into account that on average we spend 8 hours a day sleeping, that's about once every 10 minutes (including the time when we're supposed to work).

I doubt that all of those are reactions to notifications. I feel like pulling out our phones whenever we have a chance has become an innate reflex. That's a problem: I don't think that our species has ever faced such a problem of mass addiction on this scale before.
