Disable push notifications. That goes a long way to not getting sucked back in. I uninstalled Facebook and Instagram apps a long time ago. I just check every once in a while on the PC.

Imho, social media has messed up young people's lives. Seeing a group of 8 youth sitting down at a cafe, I see NO eye-to-eye contact and chatting as they are ALL scrolling. Plus, who wants to know what happening in "other people's lives"? NOT me. I love to watch GOOD vids on you/tube. Like Bob Dylans old song =The Times They Are A-Changin". They have been for the past 20 +years. Love ya Vids Rhonda and Andrew @ FoundMyFitness.🙏🙏

I absolutely agree. On Holiday to show, where you are is ok, Or to show Life events.
But to Show every aspect of one’s life on Social Media, 12 hours per day.. Is not Normal Behaviour! 🎉

I actually feel better once I'm away from my phone. Find it freeing rather than some thing is missing

[emericaskater]

Having this struggle rn. I’m working from home and my phone is there and I’m losing focus. Gotta change

[Gemma_xox]

I wanna hear from people who don’t have social media at all themselves

[brandonmetro]

Never had social media, still don't. Just bought my first cell phone a couple years ago, because of my job. I'm a engineer. My thoughts are...if I was a roofer, I would not come home with shingles in my pocket, playing with them. Tech is my job so I'm already ready to detach personally after a hard days work.

Why is Tristan Harris not more on these podcasts

[Rob-zwqs]

According to YouTube: no alcohol, no fap, no social media, no sugar etc etc

[lawrenceweinzimer]

Excellent and intensely pertinent shown here.
Dopamine peak, rush. Yes 😅 !
Forget FOMO, ask yourselves out there, what recognitions, awards or accolades are related to the platform you're on; meaning does it, one way or another, help you grow ? Thankfully social media ordinarily makes life easier.
I'll leave it loose: Just stay away from online derogatory sorts.
(Andrew - Most of my family was from the Upper East Side: 50 E. 79 St., 220 E. 72 St., 141 E. 88 St. My family were thought of as the 'poor relations' in Forest Hills. They're all gone now
How times do change 🤣 😂 !).

Scrolling...what am I doing😅 thanks for that. I'm gonna remind myself that RAW doesn't come from scrolling!

What do health influencers who try to hyper-optimize do to your brain when they stress you out with a bunch of fear mongering and claims about potentially harmful aspects of basically everything fun in your life?

[yStar]

Back to dumb phones that simply show updates. Then if you care, go to another "smart" device to engage.

[frankyu]

I get no likes online or in real life.

[Solistastyle]

Right. So he had time to lie to 6 women using social media. And used Chat GPT and Pub Med to write entire podcasts as an authority on the subjects he talked about.

But he's the person to learn social media management from?

[Magickfae]

The problem is not social media.. it is youtube and youtube shorts now.

[danzna]

Need to call out YouTube for being the worst form of social media.

[lordjim]

How to break your addiction to secret dates with Andrew? Is that what you mean?

[janicerivera]

I laugh at myself spending 18 minutes of my life listening to this.
