My screen time is 2 hours on phone, in weekend it's less than an hour and 8 hours on laptop per day for now. Before getting laptop it was much more, was reading from 5.2 inch phone "loaned" books. I am proud of finishing the Atlas shrugged, Sovereign individual, When Will Jesus Bring the Pork Chops?, the demon haunted world by Carl Sagan, Road to Serfdom, uncommunist manifesto and 1984 with that screen. Would like to finish the constitution of liberty though.
I despise notifications so much I keep them silent always. It fills me with rage when it tries to catch my attention in random time, feeling like it tries to hook me into a sort of a slot machine, a skinner box made to doomscrool to increase engaging to watch more ads. I only keep calls with sound. Maybe that's why the only "social network" I have are the messengers, youtube and stacker news.
Of course, you can do wonderful things with your phone, read good books, make money, connect with people you love but who live far away. I'm happy for you and because you make healthy use of screens and, better yet, you take advantage of them.
