Digital Minimalism will matter in the Metaverse

Digital Minimalism is a pretty simple concept now in our pre Metaverse world, but we are drawing closer to a new version of the internet. Innovations within Virtual Reality and Web 3.0 threaten to make things far more complicated from here on out. Why does limiting screen time matter now more than ever? How is digital addiction going to be so destructive to our physical lives?

This deserves way more views. These days I'm having this huge problem where I can't but open Instagram and waste time on reels, it's driving me crazy. And the problem is that i know how to stop it (delete Instagram) but i'm not doing it, addiction at its highest level...

[andrewwee]

Thanks homie, I just deinstalled the internet from my shower head.

[NickAndersonCreative]

Man, this message hit home. Your storytelling as always is top notch. Love your work dude, keep on keepin' on!

[karibernhard]

So happy I found your channel! The way you do story telling and cinematography is fun, fresh and entertaining. Keep it up!

[torpeden]

Amazing and so pure, thank you so much for your insight, I will be sure to take a piece of this video with me in my mind at all times. Just wow.

[ryanbox]

Your videos just keep getting better and better.

[filmedbylouis]

Wow. Love how you transport the Messages!

Super relatable! I especially enjoyed the internet human hoopla with your friends dancing in the background when you pulled out your phone. Also loved the projections on the wall which reminded me of Mac Miller's 100 Grandkids video concept. I just watched a few videos and subscribed! I love the storytelling and quality visuals. Thank you for sharing!

Yes!

Need a screen to write this!

Happy you’re still making content! Vundabar such a great music choice! Hope you’re doing well Shaffer, keep capturing pure art my friend

[TedAldwin]

Spending screen time with this kind of content is worthwhile though. Another incredible story Shaffer! Rock on!

[beyondourstories]

This is straight fire! Great storytelling in a visual pleasing way! The film look is not just a visual choice in this one. It ads an extra level of META! 🔥

[finnsmith]

How is everything this guy says so true🤯? Keep it up!

One if the best things i ever did was delete apps and turn all my notifications off. I still need to cut out more screentime. Amazing video Shaffer, more people need to see this. Also that shot of Bailey and Ryan was so freaking good!!!!

[mdpatton]

Excellent work on your videos. Your topic/stories always provoke thought, unlike most of the screen candy you're referring to.

[kashifulqamar]

Great work. I'm myself trying to fight my screen addiction. Wish me luck let's just zone out of the digital world and explore the real one which is way more beautiful than the digital one could ever get

[codybontecou]

Muting everyone now. Thank you for saving some of the most previous recourse in my life.

[JosephHollak]

That shot starting @ 1:22 was rewind-worthy.

[heyjakers]

Whoa. I feel like you just posted side A to a video I’m writing about how I’m going to get 44 days off my life back this year by not having social apps on my phone.

[spencertorok]

killed it as always! (also where's the hookup to get the iphone theme👀)
