Everyone should try disabling ALL notifications and then working their way up to understand which alerts are worth getting interrupted for. Everything you do on your phone ends up becoming more intentional and your battery life goes up too because your screen isn’t constantly getting turned on from the barrage of notifications. To date, I only have 1 notification turned on and it’s when my significant other messages me.
My phone has been on DnD for over a year now. I have a (cheap) smart watch which vibrates on certain alerts like message, calendar, and phone and I can quickly glance and see that it’s something I don’t care about. I also ignore the calls from numbers not in my contacts if I notice them. In the time I’ve been doing this I don’t think a single person has left a message on my voicemail - validating my actions.
It’s so nice to feel like tech isn’t running your life anymore. If I’m in an app doing something, it’s because I made the choice to do it. I still gotta work on that doom scrolling tho, YouTube being the biggest culprit. I think I might try setting some time limits.
I’m pretty sure you can do that with Do Not Disturb on Android?
Yep, pretty easy solution.
This is one of many reasons why I root my phone and make sure that Do Not Disturb mode actually does what it says on the tin.
That said, I still keep my old 1st Gen iPhone around because it’s now just a more expensive iPod Touch and works great for playing music.

Simple fix, just don’t have any friends like me! 😉
I just bought a audio player, mostly because I don’t have good internet at my house and files was taking up a lot of space. Plus it has Bluetooth transmit and receive.
Just don’t let any of your apps have permission to send you notifications. I don’t let messages notify me. I check when I check. The only app that has permission to notify me of anything is the phone app because I’m too scared there’ll be an emergency.
I remember the first time I saw an iPod. I really did think technology was over.
peak ipod would look like this but able to search for podcasts and make playlsts of podcasts
Are those kz’s you got there
Haha, yea they are!
That’s awesome man, I love kz iems
These are my first pair. I only got them a couple of weeks ago, purely to be used with my iPod.
It’s insane how good they are for the price, even more so when you compare them to wireless buds that cost £150
iPod choice, 100. Music choice… I don’t know… 20?
I still have my Sansa Clip+. I should go see if it still works. I remember I rooted that thing too lol.
I preferred my Creative Zen Touch.
Loved my Zen Micro so much. Was a sad day when it finally died, but then I got a Zune, which was incredibly excellent.
I miss the brick game and music quiz game
anyone else remember Vortex?
Music quiz with 16k songs is a real test.
