Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.


RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

I’m an elder millennial and I tend to stay on my phone a bit much too. Since I wake up 2-3 hours before I have to do anything, I switch out at least an hour of scrolling in the morning for reading a book. I require my purses to be big enough to fit a book so I can bring one with me everywhere I go. I even brought my giant ass book to my haircut so I could read it while I waited.

Don’t feel bad, it’s something that too many of us do. Maybe try switching for a book or graphic novel or something.
