And certain apps taking advantage of people (like when they put kids in a place they can easily spend their parents money with a push of a button or with the spotify artist rip off situation).

The hypocrisy: I have a smart phone, and I certainly end up using it more than I'd like. I even use spotify as one of my music app rotations, which I hate myself for, but it is one of the more convenient apps for music (I don't pay for it though, so at least I feel better they're taking another companies money for ads instead of mine).
I hear you. But… Smart phones are smart if they are used smartly. Lol Pretty much like everything else. My life would be very limiting without a smart phone. In so many ways. Too lazy to list.

Conspiracy junky look up their fake conspiracy news on tv and computers, don’t even use smart phones.

I’d say I am over social media. What a dark place t can be at times, ruining people’s lives
